It looks better. We could have a nice pixmap with a question mark. Actually, radio button was the wrong expression. I mean a button that keeps clicked, like we have in the bullets tab in Document. > spitzmue> Help Menue is o.k. for me, too, but I think it will be a > spitzmue> little bit clearer in the dialogs. > > Maybe, but many apps would use either help menu (MacOS) or toolbar > (windows for paperclip of death). I have not a really strong opinion on that. The advantage of toolbar is of course that we don't have to add something to the dialogs. It's a little bit harder to find, though.
