No HELP is shown when press F1 if Favorite or History it's shown

The behaviour described in the bug report is either by design, or would be far too complex/time-consuming to be changed

No HELP is shown when press F1 if Favorite or History it's shown

Post by *Eugensyl2 »

I activate Favorites Menu (Ctrl+D) and I press F1...
I activate History Menu (Alt+Down) and I press F1...
...nothing happens.

So, no HELP is shown when press F1 if Favorite or History it's shown.
Can be a generic Help, like another situations or related help, as usual.

This is not a BUG as TC never has reacted there on F1 not even when it was called W***owsCommander v3.52....

PS: its the same behaviour as when you open the Main Menu and press F1 like in every other Windows App.

Sorry, but what should be displayed in this 2 cases ?
The history shows what you have visited and you know it.
The favorite shows the favorites you know and on the button the 2 functions you have are shown.
Do you make some postings for fun ?

For Favorite Menu
F1 goes to (HELP) Dialog box: Change directory menu

The directory menu is invoked with CTRL+D, or a double click on the current path header.
To move menu items to a different line, put the cursor bar on the desired entry, hold down the SHIFT key and move it using up and down arrow keys. You can also drag items using the mouse...

For Dir History
F1 goes to (HELP) Configuration - History

Configure the directory history list (Alt+Cursor down or click on triangle to the right of the current path)...
