Even after many years, I still refer to Help entries for details on Surface, Object, and Operand arguments. It would make life a lot easier if I could just select a Surface Type, Object Type, or Operand Type in the first column of the Lens Data, Non-sequential Component, or Merit Function editor and have a Help window open to the selected type. It would also be nice to have the option of making the help window always-on-top so it can be referred to while working in the editor.

I think this would be especially helpful to new users.

Kind regards,
David

Yes, the OS help system needs to join the 21st century.
