In a past post I mention how to enable Help Viewer Messages for help debugging. Here's how to enable help debugging in VS 2010. In this snippet of a VS Help Integrators Yahoo Group post, Paul O'Rear [MSFT] mentions a way to switch Help debugging on in Visual Studio 2010.
Screen ShotsAdd registry item HKEY_CURRENT_USER\Software\Microsoft\VisualStudio\10.0\Dynamic Help "Display Debug Output in Retail"="YES" After a restart VS 2010 now has a new Help menu item. Click "Debug Help Context" to show the window. The content is dynamic. Here you can see that as soon as I select "WebServices" or click it, the help context has changed and the Debug window immediately shows the Help context info. |
