Creating Non-scrolling Regions

Help allows you to create a non-scrolling region at the start of a help topic. The non-scrolling region displays part of the help topic (such as the topic heading and/or a graphic) continuously while the user scrolls through the other text in the help topic as shown in Figure 3–5.

Figure 3–5: Example of a Non-scrolling Region

Help topics that you want the help engine to display in an overlapping, popup window, should not contain non-scrolling regions; otherwise, only the non-scrolling region will display.

Follow these steps to create a non-scrolling region for a help topic with MS-Word:

  1. Select all the lines of help text that you want to include in the non-scrolling region.
  2. The selected text must include the first line of the help topic. The selection may include a graphic reference.

  3. Choose Format Paragraph.
  4. The Paragraph dialog box appears.

  5. Activate the Keep With Next toggle box.
  6. Choose OK.
