I've talked with the IDE team -- this F1-based context help was a new feature they got into the IDE with this release, but the Palm product is the first one to really take advantage of it. I've showed them the UI problems -- disappearing cursors, windows that don't allow alt-tab, and so on. They're aware of the situation, but I don't know when they are planning on fixing it -- it if gets fixed in a 4.2.x version, we'll get it out as a Palm patch ASAP. -- For information on using the Palm Developer Forums, or to unsubscribe, please see http://www.palmos.com/dev/tech/support/forums/
