ViSta has an extensive help system, covering all aspects of ViSta, from specific to general. It is structured into a set of general overviews and specific context-dependent topics. Help is also available online.

  • General Overviews: The general overviews can be read by using ViSta's interactive help panel system, or by obtaining "How to Use ViSta", the printed version available online.

  • Context Sensitive: The specific context-dependent details can be obtained from HELP BUTTONS and HELP ITEMS found throughout ViSta.Essentially every graphic, text and desktop window has its own help button which provides you help for the use of the window and the interpretation of its contents.

  • Help OnLine: Extensive help is available online.
