NAME [Toc] [Back]
DtHelpQuickDialog - DtHelpQuickDialog widget class
SYNOPSIS [Toc] [Back]
#include <Dt/HelpQuickD.h>
DESCRIPTION [Toc] [Back]
The DtHelpQuickDialog widget provides users with a constrained set of
functionality for viewing and and navigating structured online
information (CDE help volumes). This functionality includes text and
graphics rendering, embedded hypertext links and limited navigation
methods to move through online help information. The widget supports
rendering of CDE help volume, system manual pages, text files and
character string values.
When the user resizes the window, the DtHelpQuickDialog widget
dynamically reformats its contents to fit the new window size if the
DtNhelpType of the contents is DtHELP_TYPE_TOPIC or
DtHELP_TYPE_DYNAMIC_STRING. If the DtNhelpType of the contents is
DtHELP_TYPE_STRING, DtHELP_TYPE_MAN_PAGE or DtHELP_TYPE_FILE, the
contents are not reformatted. Instead, scroll bars may appear when
the user resizes the window smaller than the help contents. The exact
scrollbar behavior is controlled by the DtNscrollBarPolicy resource.
Users can re-specify certain resources for the automatically created
widget contained within the DtHelpQuickDialog hierarchy. The
following is the name of the widget:
Display Area - DisplayArea
The DtHelpQuickDialog widget honors all default and user-specified
resource settings, with one exception. In the case where an error
occurs due to a non-valid request, the widget posts the proper error
message in its display area, and modifies the DtNhelpType to reflect
the current contents of the display area (that is, a string message).
Applications and users should set the DtNhelpType to the appropriate
value with each setting of the help value.
Classes [Toc] [Back]
The DtHelpQuickDialog widget inherits behavior and resources from the
Core, Composite, Constraint, XmManager and XmBulletinBoard classes.
The class pointer is dtHelpQuickDialogClass.
The class name is DtHelpQuickDialog.
New Resources [Toc] [Back]
To reference a resource by name or by class in a .Xdefaults file, the
application must remove the DtN or DtC prefix and use the remaining
letters. To specify one of the defined values for a resource in a
.Xdefaults file, the application must remove the Dt prefix and use the

remaining letters (in either lower case or upper case, but including
any underscores between words). The codes in the access column
indicate if the given resource can be set at creation time (C), set by
using XtSetValues (S), retrieved by using XtGetValues (G), or is not
applicable (N/A).

DtNexecutionPolicy [Toc] [Back]
Specifies how to handle ``Execute'' hypertext link types and
embedded scripts. The default value is set to
DtHELP_EXECUTE_QUERY_UNALIASED and supports different
semantics based on the usage of a command alias. Refer to
the CDE Help System Author's and Programmer's Guide for more
information on command alias usage. With the default value
and no command alias, a query dialog will be posted upon
user selection of an execute hypertext link. The dialog
will show the command that has been specified and give the
user the option to ``Execute Anyway,'' ``Don't Execute'' or
request help for more information. When a command alias is
present for the selected link, the command will execute
silently, and no query dialog will be posted.
Other values for this resource are DtHELP_EXECUTE_NONE,
DtHELP_EXECUTE_ALL and DtHELP_EXECUTE_QUERY_ALL.
DtHELP_EXECUTE_NONE forces all execute hypertext links to be
ignored. DtHELP_EXECUTE_ALL allows all execute hypertext
links to be executed silently upon link selection by the
user, and DtHELP_EXECUTE_QUERY_ALL forces the query dialog
to be posted with every link invocation.
DtNhelpFile [Toc] [Back]
Specifies the absolute pathname of a text file to be read
and displayed. This resource is used when the DtNhelpType
is set to DtHELP_TYPE_FILE. The topic title is required in
order to maintain an accurate and descriptive history list.
DtNhelpLabelString [Toc] [Back]
Specifies the string label for the Help button.
DtNhelpOnHelpVolume [Toc] [Back]
Specifies the help volume that contains the help topics for
the help user interface components in the widget. This is
displayed in an instance of the DtHelpQuickDialog widget
when the user requests help from within the widget. The
default value for this resource is Help4Help, which refers
to the default supported help volume. This resource
supports absolute pathnames and pathless help volume names.
When just a volume name is used, the volume must be placed
or linked to one of the default search locations, or one of
the two help search path environment variables must be
properly set. See the ENVIRONMENT VARIABLES section for
more information on setting and modifying these variables.
DtNhelpPrint [Toc] [Back]
Specifies the location of the dthelpprint utility used to
print help topics, manual pages, files or help messages from
the DtHelpQuickDialog widget. This value defaults to
/usr/dt/bin/dthelpprint.

DtNhelpType [Toc] [Back]
Specifies the current topic type. When the value is
DtHELP_TYPE_TOPIC, the DtNlocationId and DtNhelpVolume
resources are used and the requested help topic is
displayed. When the value is DtHELP_TYPE_STRING or
DtHELP_TYPE_DYNAMIC_STRING, the DtNstringData resource is
used and the requested string is displayed. When the value
is DtHELP_TYPE_FILE, the DtNhelpFile resource is used and
the requested text file is displayed. When the value is
DtHELP_TYPE_MAN, the DtNmanPage resource is used and the
requested system manual page is displayed. The initial
default value is DtHELP_TYPE_TOPIC; however, each time there
is a request to display a help topic, text file, manual page
or text string, the user should reset DtNhelpType to the
proper type.
DtNhelpVolume [Toc] [Back]
Specifies the help volume to use. This resource is used in
conjunction with the DtNlocationId resource to display help
topics. This resource supports absolute pathnames and
pathless help volume names. When using just a volume name,
the volume must be placed in or linked to one of the default
search locations, or one of the two help search path
environment variables must be properly set. See the
ENVIRONMENT VARIABLES section for more information on
setting and modifying these variables.
DtNhyperLinkCallback [Toc] [Back]
Specifies the callback called when a client-specific
hypertext link type is activated in the display area of the
DtHelpQuickDialog widget. Links are activated when the user
presses mouse button 1 over a hypertext link, or presses
<KActivate> with the keyboard focus on the hypertext link
item. The callback reason is DtCR_HELP_LINK_ACTIVATE.
DtNhyperLinkCallback allows applications to register a
callback procedure used to process one of four hypertext
link types: DtHELP_LINK_APP_DEFINE, DtHELP_LINK_TOPIC,
DtHELP_LINK_MAN_PAGE or DtHELP_LINK_TEXT_FILE. For the
DtHELP_LINK_TOPIC, the callback is made only when the
windowHint value in the callback structure is
DtHELP_NEW_WINDOW.
DtNlocationId [Toc] [Back]
Specifies a help topic to display. Applications reference
topics within a help volume using a location ID. Location
IDs are author-defined at help volume creation time.
Applications use these location IDs to display the desired
help topic. The default value for this resource is
_HOMETOPIC, which refers to the help volume's top level
topic. DtNhelpVolume must be set to the help volume in
which the corresponding location ID resides, and DtNhelpType
- 4 - Formatted: January 24, 2005
DtHelpQuickDialog(library call) DtHelpQuickDialog(library call)
must be set to DtHELP_TYPE_TOPIC.
DtNmanPage [Toc] [Back]
Specifies the system manual page to display in the current
DtHelpQuickDialog widget. This resource is used when the
DtNhelpType is set to DtHELP_TYPE_MAN_PAGE.
DtNminimizeButtons [Toc] [Back]
Sets the buttons to the width of the widest button and the
height of the tallest button if False. If True, button
width and height are not modified.
DtNmoreLabelString [Toc] [Back]
Specifies the string label for the More button.
DtNpaperSize [Toc] [Back]
Controls the value used in the Help-Print dialog for paper
size. The default value is set to DtHELP_PAPERSIZE_LETTER.
Other supported values for this resource are:
DtHELP_PAPERSIZE_LEGAL, DtHELP_PAPERSIZE_EXECUTIVE,
DtHELP_PAPERSIZE_A4, DtHELP_PAPERSIZE_B5.
DtNprinter [Toc] [Back]
Specifies the printer name used to print within the
DtHelpQuickDialog widget. If the value is NULL, the default
value is taken from the LPDEST environment variable.
DtNprintLabelString [Toc] [Back]
Specifies the string label for the Print button.
DtNrows Specifies the number of rows of text to display in the
display area of the DtHelpQuickDialog widget.
DtNscrollBarPolicy [Toc] [Back]
Controls the automatic placement of scroll bars in the text
display area. If it is set to DtHELP_AS_NEEDED_SCROLLBARS,
the scroll bars are displayed only if the display area
exceeds the clip area in one or both dimensions. A resource
value of DtHELP_STATIC_SCROLLBARS causes the display area to
display the scroll bars whenever the DtHelpQuickDialog
widget is managed, regardless of the relationship between
the clip window and the display area. A value of
DtHELP_NO_SCROLLBARS removes scroll bars from the
DtHelpQuickDialog widget. The default value is
DtHELP_AS_NEEDED_SCROLLBARS.
DtNstringData [Toc] [Back]
Specifies the string data (char *) to display in the current
DtHelpQuickDialog widget. This resource is used when the
DtNhelpType is set to DtHELP_TYPE_STRING.

DtNtopicTitle [Toc] [Back]
Specifies the topic title (char *) to be used in conjunction
with either the DtNstringData or DtNhelpFile resource. The
topic title is required in order to maintain an accurate and
descriptive history list. The topic title is also used as
the default heading for the banner page and page header when
printing. When printing help topics, this resource may be
ignored.

Callback Information [Toc] [Back]
A pointer to the following structure is passed to each callback:
typedef struct {
int reason;
XEvent *event;
char *locationId;
char *helpVolume;
char *specification;
int hyperType;
int windowHint;
} DtHelpDialogCallbackStruct;
The reason argument indicates why the callback was invoked.
The event argument points to the XEvent that triggered the callback.
The locationId argument indicates the DtNlocationId for the current
topic. This value is NULL whenever the hyperType value is not
DtHELP_LINK_TOPIC or DtHELP_LINK_APP_DEFINE.
The helpVolume argument indicates the current help volume. This value
returns NULL whenever the hyperType value is not DtHELP_LINK_TOPIC or
DtHELP_LINK_APP_DEFINE.
- 8 - Formatted: January 24, 2005
DtHelpQuickDialog(library call) DtHelpQuickDialog(library call)
The specification argument indicates any author-defined data contained
within the selected hypertext link. This value returns NULL if no
author-defined data was given. For hyperlinks of type
DtHELP_MAN_PAGE, the specification argument contains the name of the
manual page. For hyperlinks of type DtHELP_LINK_TEXT_FILE, the
specification argument contains that name of the file.
The hyperType argument indicates the hypertext link type. Possible
values are: DtHELP_LINK_TOPIC, DtHELP_LINK_MAN_PAGE,
DtHELP_LINK_APP_DEFINE or DtHELP_LINK_TEXT_FILE.
The windowHint argument indicates a hint for the type of window
(current window, DtHelpQuickDialog widget window or new window) to
use. This value contains one of the following three types:
DtHELP_POPUP_WINDOW, DtHELP_CURRENT_WINDOW or DtHELP_NEW_WINDOW.
Additional Behavior [Toc] [Back]
The DtHelpQuickDialog widget has the additional behavior described
below:
<MAny> <KCancel>
Calls the active callbacks for the Close button. If a
<BDrag> for either a selection or scrollbar movement is in
process, the KCancel aborts that action.
<KSpace>, <KActivate> or <BSelect> in Display Area Text
Invokes the hypertext link that contains the current
selection.
<DoubleClick> in Display Area Text
Ignored.
<BDrag> in Display Area Text
Selects the text from the drag start point to the drag end
point. Moving and holding the <BDrag> outside the topic
tree or display area, scrolls the window, selecting the
newly exposed text.
<Close Button Activated>
Closes the DtHelpQuickDialog widget, and calls the
DtNcloseCallback callbacks with reason DtCR_HELP_CLOSE.
<Backtrack Button Activated>
Forces the DtHelpQuickDialog widget to display the data
previously displayed in the dialog. If the current item was
the first item displayed in the DtHelpQuickDialog widget,
the Backtrack button is insensitive.
<Print Button Activated>
Forces the DtHelpQuickDialog widget to display the HelpPrint
dialog.
- 9 - Formatted: January 24, 2005

ENVIRONMENT VARIABLES [Toc] [Back]
The DtHelpQuickDialog widget uses two environment variables for
locating help volumes within the desktop environment:
DTHELPSEARCHPATH
The system search path environment variable for locating
help volumes on local and remote NFS mounted systems.
DTHELPUSERSEARCHPATH
The search path environment variable for locating userspecific
help volumes on local and remote NFS mounted
systems.
The environment variables contain colon-separated lists of directory
paths. Each directory path can contain both environment variable
names as well as special field descriptors that are expanded at
runtime.
Field descriptors consist of a percent-sign character (%) followed by
a single character. Field descriptors and their substitution values
are:
%H Replaced with the current volume name being searched for.
%L Replaced with the current value of the LANG environment
variable.
%% Replaced with a single %.
The default value for DTHELPUSERSEARCHPATH is:
$HOME/.dt/help/$DTUSERSESSION/%H:
$HOME/.dt/help/$DTUSERSESSION/%H.sdl:
$HOME/.dt/help/$DTUSERSESSION/%H.hv:
$HOME/.dt/help/%H:
$HOME/.dt/help/%H.sdl:
$HOME/.dt/help/%H.hv
The DTHELPUSERSEARCHPATH is first searched for the requested volume.
If the volume is not found, the DTHELPSEARCHPATH value is searched.
The default value for DTHELPSEARCHPATH path is:
/etc/dt/appconfig/help/%L/%H:
/etc/dt/appconfig/help/%L/%H.sdl:
/etc/dt/appconfig/help/%L/%H.hv:
