FAQPage Schema
How do I add built-in help to 1C configuration objects?▼

Adding built-in help to 1C objects involves generating a Help.xml file and a localized HTML page for the specified metadata object. The process requires an Ext directory and UTF-8 BOM output to ensure proper formatting.

How do I make 1C help appear in object form contents automatically?▼

To make help appear in 1C form contents automatically, update the form metadata by adding the IncludeHelpInContents parameter. This integrates the generated HTML help page directly into the object's form structure.

Can I add help to 1C objects that are under vendor support protection?▼

Adding help to 1C objects under vendor support protection requires checking the support-state first to avoid breaking updates. The process verifies support rules before applying any deterministic file edits to the metadata.

What 1C metadata objects support generated help packages?▼

1C metadata objects that support generated help packages include catalogs, documents, reports, and data processors. These objects require a structured help package with format-version detection and UTF-8 BOM output.

Do I need an Ext directory to generate Help.xml for 1C objects?▼

An Ext directory is required to generate Help.xml for 1C objects, along with format-version detection and UTF-8 BOM output. This directory structure ensures the help package integrates correctly with the metadata.
