Hi Meyammai,

Here is how to overwrite the Help command and implement quickly a help dialog in RadEditor "Prometheus":

In the aspx file overwrite the Help command:

<telerik:radeditor runat="server" ID="RadEditor1">
<Tools>
    <telerik:EditorToolGroup>
        <telerik:EditorTool Name="Help" />
    </telerik:EditorToolGroup>
</Tools>
</telerik:radeditor>
<script type="text/javascript">
Telerik.Web.UI.Editor.CommandList["Help"] = function(commandName, editor, args)
{  
   editor.showDialog("HelpDialog", {}, null);
};
</script>

In the codebehind put the following code:

using Telerik.Web.UI;

    protected void Page_Load(object sender, EventArgs e)
    {
        DialogDefinition HelpDialog = new DialogDefinition("./HelpDialog.ascx", new DialogParameters());

        HelpDialog.Modal = true;
        HelpDialog.VisibleTitlebar = true;
        HelpDialog.VisibleStatusbar = true;
        HelpDialog.Width = Unit.Pixel(400);
        HelpDialog.Height = Unit.Pixel(470);
        RadEditor1.AddDialogDefinition("HelpDialog", HelpDialog);
    }
 
Download the attached zipped folder with icons here in the root of your web application. Finally, download the Help.ascx dialog from here.
