Description
On Windows next to the "X" (close) icon there is a "?" icon on many panels. I.e. the Settings → options one.
However, after 5 minutes of searching, I've found very very little that actually has any help for it.
I've only found Settings → Options → CRS → "Automatically enable on the fly reprojection" option.
Most things on "Create a Layer from a Delimited Text File" (bonus points to them :-) ).
And one or two other things scattered around. But for the vast majority of stuff there doesn't seem to be any context sensitive help.

#1 Updated by Richard Duivenvoorde almost 11 years ago
- File 01.png added
to help non windows users to understand the 'problem'.
see screenshot: as you can see there is both a help-button on some dialogs (which will popup the contexthelp (also visible here)).
But what is meant by this issue is the little ?-marked button..
Maybe a Qt quirk?

Can we close this issue?

Please test with a recent QGIS release (2.18 or 3), if the issue/request is still valid change the affected version accordingly, if is fixed/implemented then close the ticket. Thanks!
