Qt Providing Help
-
So from what I understand we have the following options to provide Help in our applications with Widgets:
Tooltips – show short tooltip
Statustips – show a bit longer message in status bar
Whats This Mode – show HTML supported help in special help mode
QDesktopServices - show a HTML file in systems webbrowser
QTextBrowser - show a HTML file with QTextBrower. Use it as a simple WebEngine
Qt Assistant – Deprecated in QT5 ???
System Tray IconAm I missing another way to provide help?
Is Qt Assistant deprecated in QT5 ? In my book which handles Qt 4 It can be used with a class QAssistantClient but it is deprecated now.
Also what does dynamic help mean?
I ask these questions because I try to prepare for Qt Certification for Widget UI.

@sandro4912 said in Qt Providing Help:
but it is deprecated now.
But it's also explained how to replace it: https://doc.qt.io/archives/4.6/qassistantclient.html#details
"Note: This class is obsolete and only required when using the old Qt Assistant, now called assistant_adp. If you want to use the new Qt Assistant as a remote help viewer, simple create a QProcess instance and specify assistant as its executable. " -
Your right I did not see that.
And what is dynamic help?
