There are two ways to get context sensitive help. If the user holds the cursor over a button or tool the name will appear in a small pop-up text box below the cursor.

Also the Help Strip is at the bottom of the WMS application window and is used for user prompts and to display context sensitive help messages. Some commands require selection in the middle of execution, at these times, WMS chimes and a prompt appears in the Help Strip with specific instructions. Once the instructions have been completed the prompt message is removed. Context sensitive help messages appear in the Help Strip as the cursor is moved over tools, macros, menu items, or dialog items.
