Context help can be requested from almost any \CGG{} window or subwindow by pointing with the mouse cursor on the GUI element of interest and pressing \texttt{Alt/h}. That HTML manual page will be shown via the configured web browser, which is assumed as most relevant to the GUI element currently under the mouse pointer.

\label{sub:how_it_works}
The hotkey to request context help is \texttt{Alt/h}. What particular help page is shown, depends on the mouse cursor location while \texttt{Alt/h} is pressed. Usually, when the mouse is located in some window or dialog, the help page related to the functionality of this window or dialog is shown. In this case the mouse can point either on some widget, or on an empty area in the window. In \CGG{} GUI there are several rich loaded windows, \textit{Timeline} and \textit{Compositor} for example. In such a case different help pages can be requested depending on the particular GUI element under the mouse. For example, pressing \texttt{Alt/h} while pointing on the \textit{Autos curve} in a track would show help on \textit{automation keyframes} section, pointing on the \textit{Overlay} mode button in the \textit{patchbay} would show help on \textit{overlays}, pointing on the \textit{camera control} in \textit{Compositor} would show help on \textit{camera and projector}.
