Right.
OP, if you do go with "no box" or "frames", then you
you'd have to tell the /parent window/ to redraw instead,
so that the background gets redrawn. (with a no box or frame,
you basically 'see through' the help widget to the window's bg,
so telling the widget to redraw isn't enough)
To tell the help view widget's window to redraw:
yourhelpview->window()->redraw();
But this can be avoided if you leave the help view widget's
box() set to a regular 'box' instead of one of the "see-through"
'frame' or 'nobox' types. Then you can just tell the widget to
redraw(), or it may even draw itself correctly without that.
