Providing Help Balloons for Window Content
Providing Help Balloons for Window Content
You can create help balloons for objects within the content area of
your windows. How you choose to provide help balloons for the content
area of your windows depends mainly on whether your windows are
static or dynamic.
A static window does not change its title or reposition any of the
objects within its content area. A dynamic window may reposition any
of its objects within the content area and its title may change.
For example, any window that scrolls past areas of interest to the
user is a dynamic window, because the objects with associated help
balloons can change location as the user scrolls. A window that only
displays a picture that cannot be resized or scrolled is an example of a
static window. The Figure below shows examples of static and dynamic
windows. The Help Balloons in Static Windows and
Help Balloons in Dynamic Windows describe how to provide
help balloons for these types of windows.
