Context-sensitive Help Press the Help button on a driver tab or in a dialog box, and a context-sensitive Help message appears.

These messages alert you to selections that are illogical or impossible given the capabilities of the product or the current settings of other controls. For example, if you click Print on Both Sides and then change the media type to Transparency, a message appears asking you to resolve this conflict. Figure 3-1 A typical constraint message with an OK button Whenever a constraint message appears with the OK or Cancel button, the interpretation of the button is as follows: ■ Clicking OK accepts the change that was just made, and the driver then resets the conflicting control to a setting that is compatible with the new value. ■ Clicking Cancel rejects the change that was just made, and the control returns to its previous value.

response to specific actions that you take. These messages alert you to selections that are illogical
or impossible given the capabilities of the product or the current settings of other controls. For
example, if you click
Print on Both Sides
and then change the media type to
Transparency
, a
message appears asking you to resolve this conflict.
Figure 3-1
A typical constraint message with an OK button
Whenever a constraint message appears with the
OK
or
Cancel
button, the interpretation of the
button is as follows:
Clicking
OK
accepts the change that was just made, and the driver then resets the conflicting
control to a setting that is compatible with the new value.
Clicking
Cancel
rejects the change that was just made, and the control returns to its previous
value.
