Working from the 'Review/Change definition' display it is possible to:

  • Review the HELP panel's definition
  • Change the HELP panel's definition. To do this use the CHANGE function key to place the screen in change mode and make any desired changes.

The following input options apply to changing a HELP panel's definition:

Description

Mandatory. Specifies the title of the HELP panel when it is displayed to a user. It is recommended that upper and lower case characters are used and that the value is centered in the space available. This ensures the best aesthetic effect when it is displayed to a user of the HELP panel.

Display Sequence

Mandatory, but always prefilled to <highest sequence number + 100>. This sequence number determines the sequence that HELP panels will be displayed to a user when they elect to 'walk through' all the HELP panels available for an application template.
