The UPDD
software is supplied with an on-line help system which can be invoked from the
UPDD Console, Help button:
or, optionally,
under Windows, the UPDD System Tray utility.
The Help
links invoke the on-line help pages which can also be viewed here.
The help
system uses a help viewer application (helpvwer) which is available for all
major desktop OS supported by UPDD, being Windows, Linux and Mac OS X to
display the content of the help files.
The on-line
help system is effectively a number of HTML files that hyperlink between the
on-line help pages and also the web based UPDD Documentation.
The
standard set of on-line help files are a generic, non-branded, English language
set of HTML files. The names of these
files and the information held within are shown below:

These files
are installed in the UPDD application folder, sub folder Help and can be updated
or amended as required by end users or OEMs as appropriate.
UPDD
supports multiple languages and the installation procedure notes the system’s
locale (language setting) and selects the appropriate language file for the
language to be used in the utility programs. Should you produce a set of help
files in a different language this locale process can be extended to select the
appropriate language help files, based on the system locate (2 character id).
In this case the ‘en’ element of the file name would be replaced with the
‘locale’ code, e.g. fr = French, de=German etc.
Running
TBcalib /lang will display the locale of any given system. See UPDD
Language document for more information.
Should you
wish to distribute a branded or amended version of the help files please
contact Touch-Base to discuss your requirements.
