Is it possible to get Wizard dialogs without help sub-window? I.e. have full-screen contents?

No. And that's intentional.
It hurts big times. In the very beginning, when YaST was nice and fancy and dialogs were small (in those times of the 3-click-installation, 6.4/7.x) the idea with a permanently visible help was innovative Today, it is just a PITA. The user who is able and willing to read a help text, will not mind clicking help. Forcing all users to see teh helps all the time, is not user-friendly.
A configuration dialog needs a help text. Always.
Yes, but this does not mean the help text must be visible all the time. And it needs a good and comprehensive help text. In the help, you must explain _all_ widgets, or tell the user where more information is to be found. -- Karl Eichwalder R&D / Documentation SUSE LINUX Products GmbH, GF: Markus Rex, HRB 16746 (AG Nuernberg) -- To unsubscribe, e-mail: yast-devel+unsubscribe@opensuse.org For additional commands, e-mail: yast-devel+help@opensuse.org
