Edit a User Help Topic
You can edit an existing user help topic.
To edit a user provided help topic
From the User Help section of iStrobe, select a help topic from the table and click Edit. The Edit User Help window appears.
Modify the contents of the following fields as needed:
-
Author: Default value is the iStrobe User Name you set in the iStrobe Preferences dialog box, but you can enter another.
Type: Select the type of help topic: Module, CICS Resource, Language Environment Option, General. The topic is stored accordingly.
Module, or CICS Resource: Associates your help with the existing Compuware help for a module, CICS resource, or adds help for any other module or CICS resource that might appear in an iStrobe report.
General: Help that is not associated with Compuware help for a module, CICS resource, or report. Enter a topic title for the help. After creating it, you can access this help only by selecting Help>User-provided help.
Status: Select In progress (the default status) for help topics that are under development. When you are ready to share them, select Publish.
Module name: The name you associate with your help topic must be three to eight characters long and is case-sensitive. Valid characters are letters, numbers, the underscore, and a leading period for Strobe pseudo-entities. A trailing asterisk can be used to link your help topic to a number of modules with names beginning with the same string. For example, the topic COB* is linked to modules named COBC000A, COBC000B, but not cobf0001.
In the text box, modify the content and use the formatting tools to format the text.
Click OK.
