embed a help document

Is there a way to embed a PDF or word document in a Studio Go app? We would like to have a button that opens a help document. I tried adding an expandable Text button, but it doesn't scroll if you exceed the length of the screen. 

 

Thanks

  Hi Aaron

  There isn't currently a way to embed a PDF or word doc in your Go app. The most common implementation of this that I've seen is to use a Taskbar Panel (which you can show and hide with an IWTM menu item or a map button - or leave always persistent). 
  
  You'll want to use the Scroll component (to get the scrolling behavior you are looking for) and then embed your Text component in that. This also works in an expand - but the expand itself is limited to fitting into a ‘map slot’ and won't use up the full vertical real estate of your app.

  It'll look something like this:
  

  And should yield a Runtime display like:
  

  Hope this helps!
