I have a wizard which contains two radio buttons (say "A" & "B") and the "help" icon in the bottom.

By default selection is on "B" and when user clicks "help" icon the content related to "B" is displayed on the right hand side of the wizard. When the selection changes to "A", I need to change the help contents to display "A" contents.

I tried using displayHelp() which brings out the help contents on the selection of radio button even before clicking on the "help" icon.

TrayDialog has only 2 methods. (setHelpAvailable/isHelpAvailable) which isn't use for me here.

Is there anyway to get a handle on the help icon (or) to identify that the help content window is already opened in the wizard?

You can get the workbench help system and check if context-sensitive help is being displayed. If so, then probably the easiest thing is to post an SWT.Help event against your radio button.

IWorkbench workbench = ...;
if(workbench.getHelpSystem().isContextHelpDisplayed()) {
radioButton.notifyListeners(SWT.Help, new Event());
}
