Customizing Quick Help

Almost every window in Citavi has Quick Help instructions for every field and control to help you enter information correctly and help you understand options. You can customize the Quick Help texts to add extra information for your particular situation.

Customizing a Quick Help Text

1.For text fields, place the insertion point into the field whose help text you want to modify. For other controls, move the mouse over the control, then move directly to the Quick Help area without moving the mouse over other controls.

2.Press Ctrl+Shift+F12.

3.Citavi opens the Quick Help text in an editor, where you can change it as needed.

Citavi saves modified help topics in the Custom Help folder, located by default at My Documents\Citavi 3\Custom Help. To revert to the original text, delete the custom help file.

Determining Which Quick Help Text is in Use

To see which Quick Help text is currently being displayed, press Ctrl+F12 to display the About This Quick Help Text window.
