User Interface Reference

User interface (UI) reference topics explain the options that appear on various dialog boxes, windows, and other user interfaces. These types of topics generally appear when you press F1 in a dialog box or window. In the table of contents, these topics are grouped by the feature area to which they apply. For example, the UI reference topic for the Find dialog box can be found under Editors.
