<< Prev   Next >>

To find a required topic, you can use the table of contents. In the Help window, click Contents.

This opens the tree of topics in the left part of the window.

The tree of topics is generated automatically and includes both 1C:Enterprise help and application help. This may include manuals for specific sections of the application.

You can expand or collapse each tree branch.

+ (plus sign) in a branch node indicates that this branch can be expanded. To expand a tree branch, click the plus sign or double-click the topic name. Once you expand a branch, the + (plus sign) is changed to - (minus sign). To collapse a branch, click - (minus sign) next to it.

To expand all of the tree branches, select the root topic in the tree and press * on the numeric keypad.

The first level of the tree includes section names.

To reach a specific topic, you may need to expand multiple nested branches sequentially.

To navigate through the topics, you can use the topic tree or the Help window toolbar.

To view topic text, select the topic in the tree and press Enter. The right part of the window displays the topic text.

To navigate through the topic text, you can use arrow keys or press Page Down or Page Up.

If the topic text is long enough, use scroll bars to the right and at the bottom of the window.

The buttons in the Help window toolbar provide quick navigation between topics.

To go to the next topic, click Go to next topic. If the next topic is located in a collapsed tree branch, the branch is expanded and the selection is moved to that topic. To go to the previous topic, click Go to previous topic.

To find the position of the current topic in the tree, click Find current topic in the tree.

If you viewed multiple help topics, you can navigate through them using the Go forward, Go back, and History buttons.

To print the current help topic, click Print. This opens the standard print dialog box.
