Commands (YCLRMDL - YDLTOBJTBL) › YCVTTMUIM (Convert Help Text to UIM Panel) Command › Notes
Notes
- The converted source can be compiled into a panel group (*PNLGRP). It can then be used with existing applications, without the need to regenerate those applications as follows:
- The help display routine (YDDSHPR) will check for the existence of a panel group with the same name as the help member. If it exists, it will use that panel group to display UIM help panels.
- In order to supply cursor sensitive help, help panels must be related to screen areas.
- For full UIM, this is supplied by DDS keywords in the associated display file.
- For converted UIM, this must be supplied by a source member that defines a vector table. This source member can either be the original TM source member or the converted UIM source member, both of which contain the ".*yv" tags that define the vector table. The routine will look for this member in the same file as the original TM source member.
