If you have questions as you navigate through TorontoMLS, Help is a click away. Help is organized so that you can read it like a book, select a topic by index keyword, search Help text for any word, or access subject-specific information from any TMLS page.
The Help window displays a navigation panel (with Contents, Index, and Search buttons) on the left side, displaying individual Help topics on the right.
Click on each heading (hotspot) below to learn about Help.
Click Help (or in some cases the question mark button) at the top right of any TMLS page to open the Help window. If desired, resize the Help window.
Close 
the Help window to return
to TMLS.

In the left panel of any Help window, notice three buttons:
Contents: Click this button to use the Table of Contents. Each subject heading is identified by a book icon. Click on a book to reveal the pages (topics). Click the page for Help on that topic. Help topics display in the right panel. (Click again on the book to retract the pages).
Index: Click this button to use the Index. This is an alphabetic listing of index keywords for Help topics. When you enter a keyword in the text box, TMLS highlights matching words or phrases. Click on a word or phrase to view the associated Help topic. (If more than one topic is indexed with the keyword you enter, choose a topic from the displayed list). Help topics display in the right panel.
Search: Click this button to use the full text search. Type a word or words into the text box, then click Go. TMLS searches Help for every topic containing your search text. Click on a topic to display the Help topic in the right panel.
TMLS provides subject-specific Help for most functions. At any TMLS page, click Help to display the appropriate topic for that page (if available).
Help has special features to expedite information retrieval:
Drop-down Hotspots
are underlined headings in bold bright blue type followed by an arrow
. Click on the hotspot to view associated
drop-down text. Click again on the hotspot to retract the text.
See Also buttons, located at the end of many help topics, contain links to related topics. Click on the See Also button. If there is only one related topic, TMLS opens that topic directly. If there are several topics, TMLS presents a list. Click on a topic to display Help.
Hyperlink Text is in-line text that links to another topic in Help. A hyperlink is identified by underlined text in a colored font. Click on the text to link to the topic. (If you click on a link and want to return to the original topic, right click anywhere inside the new topic, then click Back on the floating menu.)
In certain circumstances it may be convenient to print a Help topic.
With the Help topic displayed in the right-hand panel, click Print.
At the Print dialog box, click Print. TMLS automatically expands each drop-down for printing.
To Print a Portion of a Help Topic
You may want to print just a portion of a Help topic. If the text is in a drop-down, the drop-down must be expanded.
Drag the mouse to select the desired text.
Click Print.
At the Print dialog box, under Page Range, click Selection. Then click Print.
