3.10. Documentation (Program Help / F1) source

In V12, the program help can be received either from the Web or from the installation (with identical functionality). By default, the installed help is used.

[In the first versions of V12 (< SP4), by default, the Web-help has been used. (This does not affect PARTS4CAD, as it basically uses the Web-help.)]

  • Help installed on Server/Client

    Of course the help files have to be explicitly installed. (If not yet done, they can be installed subsequently via installer anytime.)

    Selection of help in installer (here, exemplified with PARTsolutions Enterprise Setup)

  • Web-help

    In order to use the Web-help, in the start.env, in CADENAS_APPSERVER variable, set the inethelp parameter with value 1.

    CADENAS_APPSERVER=https://servername.cadenas.internal?sslport=443&inethelp=1

    [Note]Note

    This entry only refers to the computer in which start.env it is set. So in order to force clients to use the WebHelp set it in their own start.env.

The following matrix shows for which combinations of Inethelp value and Help installed which help is used.
