Product Version: NetBeans IDE 6.0 RC1 (Build 200711140000) Java: 1.6.0_03; Java HotSpot(TM) Client VM 1.6.0_03-b05 System: Windows XP version 5.1 running on x86; Cp1251; ru_RU (nb) Steps to reproduce: - Open CPU/Memory snapshot - Press F1 - RESULT: No context help is shown for snapshot. F1 works perfectly for Live Results window.
The list of windows that do not show context help also includes: - Profiler Control Panel - Profiling Points window - VM Telemetry Overview - Specify Root Methods dialog - Select Root Methods dialog - Define New Root Method dialog - Profiling Points Active in Analyze Performance/Analyze Memory - many other small dialogs which don't have "Help" button but F1 is still working in them IMO if no specific topic can be shown for any particular dialog or window, some Profiler topic could be shown instead of "Finding Information About the IDE" topic.
changing milestone
The windows can be mapped to existing topics only if a help id is assigned to them. The Live Result window has the help id LiveResultsWindow.HelpCtx Currently all these unmapped windows and dialogs have the generic help id of org.openide.util.HelpCtx.DEFAULT_HELP which automatically maps to the "Finding Information About the IDE" topic. When help ids are assigned to the windows and dialogs I can map them to existing profiler related topics, but i cannot assign help ids to the windows. This issue should be reassigned to an engineer to for the help ids and can then be reassigned back to me to map the ids to topics
Removing VISUALVM keyword, there's no context help in VisualVM.
Some of the help ids already available, see Issue 107842. Added these ids: - RootMethodsPanel.HelpCtx - ProjectSelectRootMethodsPanel.HelpCtx - ManualMethodSelect.HelpCtx - ProfilingPointsDisplayer.HelpCtx Please add the correct help mappings for 6.5. changeset: 99258:1cb813ad945b date: Mon Sep 01 16:37:37 2008 +0200 summary: Bugfix #121927 Added missing help ids
