3 | A help event is sent when the user has requested context-sensitive help. | |
4 | This can either be caused by the application requesting | |
5 | context-sensitive help mode via \helpref{wxContextHelp}{wxcontexthelp}, or | |
6 | (on MS Windows) by the system generating a WM\_HELP message when the user pressed F1 or clicked | |
7 | on the query button in a dialog caption. | |
8 | ||
9 | A help event is sent to the window that the user clicked on, and is propagated up the | |
10 | window hierarchy until the event is processed or there are no more event handlers. | |
11 | The application should call wxEvent::GetId to check the identity of the clicked-on window, | |
12 | and then either show some suitable help or call wxEvent::Skip if the identifier is unrecognised. | |
13 | Calling Skip is important because it allows wxWindows to generate further events for ancestors | |
14 | of the clicked-on window. Otherwise it would be impossible to show help for container windows, | |
15 | since processing would stop after the first window found. | |
