摘要： A computing device has a processor, a display, and an operating system which executes on the processor to provide a graphical user interface environment capable of presenting graphical windows on the display. A computer application runs on the operating system and is presented within a graphical application window of the graphical user interface. The computer application is configured to present a help pane for showing help content to a user without requiring the user to open a separate graphical window to show the help content. The help pane is positioned adjacent to a workspace to assist the user with context specific, step-by-step, instructions. When the help pane is active, the focus remains on the application and on the work being performed in the workspace, as opposed to being transferred to the help pane. As a result, the user can directly implement the instructions provided in the help pane without having to remember to switch the focus between the help and application, as is required when separate help windows are used.
摘要翻译：计算设备具有处理器，显示器和操作系统，其在处理器上执行以提供能够在显示器上呈现图形窗口的图形用户界面环境。计算机应用程序在操作系统上运行并呈现在图形用户界面的图形应用程序窗口内。计算机应用程序被配置为呈现用于向用户显示帮助内容的帮助窗格，而不需要用户打开单独的图形窗口来显示帮助内容。帮助窗格位于工作空间的旁边，以帮助用户具有上下文特定的分步说明。当帮助窗格处于活动状态时，焦点将保留在应用程序以及正在工作区中执行的工作上，而不是传输到帮助窗格。因此，用户可以直接实现在帮助窗格中提供的指令，而无需记住在帮助和应用程序之间切换焦点，这是在使用单独的帮助窗口时所需要的。
