Abstract
Providing context-sensitive animated help is a new approach to on-line help presentation. This approach responds to a specific class of help requests which seek a procedural outline of how an application task can be performed by constructing a sequence of application actions which will perform the task within the user's current context. The sequence is then demonstrated to the user graphically. Two key aspects of such help are the system's dynamic creation of help content and the use of animation to present help. This videotape demonstrates an implemented example of how contextsensitive animated help can be used in application software. The chosen application is a graphical directory access program. Four kinds of operations in the graphical directory access program are illustrated: copy file, select file, open directory, and select directory.
