VCL should parse any action button with the stock content “gtk-help” and make it render the circular Help button that is used in native OS X applications.

This page [1] says: “To define a Help button in your code, use the setBezelStyle: method of NSButtonCell with NSHelpButtonBezelStyle as the argument.” If this is of any help.
