Hello!

I guess adding a background image option to the help window is a nice feature. I'll add that to the backlog.

As for the click / touch support, I think that's a good idea as well, but I would like a feel more details before getting down into code. Since the window can be hidden, there won't be anything to click / touch to make it visible. What I think could be done is to add an overlay button to toggle its visibility. So clicking / touching on the button would hide or show the window. Is that what you were suggesting?

Oh! thanks for getting back ^^
Thanks for considering the features!

Yes that's more or less what I had in mind with the "touch/click" support.
Right now you have it set up where you can select a key (default tab) to show or hide the info window.
I was mainly just thinking if there could be a way to add "click/touch" to that dropdown so that mobile interfaces can interact with the "show/hide" button, or just make it always click/touch enabled, as almost all the normal UI supports touch inputs as a valid option to interact with the interface.

That's a nice suggestion, and I can totally make it happen! :)

I was awfully busy the last few months and have acumulated quite a backlog of fixes and new features to implement (some of which I'll probably release this week). SmartHelp is actually close to the top of the list with some already mapped bugs and new features, so although it may take a while, it won't be that long!!

Awesome to hear!
I can use it in my project then, as I am working on a mobile title haha

Excited to see the changes.
