\helpref{ShowHelp}{wxhelpprovidershowhelp}, so it is enough to only implement
the latter if the help doesn't depend on the position.
Returns \true if help was shown, or \false if no help was available for this
window.
\wxheading{Parameters}
\docparam{window}{Window to show help text for.}

\docparam{origin}{Help event origin, see also \helpref{wxHelpEvent::Origin}{wxhelpeventorigin}.}

Shows help for the given window. Override this function if the help doesn't
