Invoking Help

A cursory search of Jade help concerning invoking .chm files all seems to refer to F1 key, helpContextId and helpKeyword properties etc. Which all makes sense, but my question is...

....is there a Jade command to simply invoke Help programatically, so that e.g. a click of a button opens a specified help file at a given location etc?

There are obviously various fiddles possible, but just wondered if there is a simple straightforward function call that I haven't noticed?

Thanks.

Try the Window::showHelp method and see if that will help achieve the desired result.

Cheers,
