Purpose

To specify the location of help information.

Syntax

winio@('%n.mhe[options]')

Description

If %he, %bh (Bubble Help) and %th (Tooltip Help) are not used, help information (obtained using the question mark modifier with certain format codes) is placed at the bottom of the window. %he specifies the current position as the required position for help information.

n and m are optional (m cannot be specified without n). m defaults to 1. They specify the width and depth of the area to take the help string measured in average character units.

The option [flush] can be used when the parent window has a %sy (Dialog Style) 3d style with the result that the %he border is re-aligned. You can also set the background colour to that of a frame using
winio@('%`bg[inactiveborder]%he[flush]').
