1) Einther in Chapters_Overview.html, or in CINELERRA_GG_Overview.html -<br>
some short sentence like: "Furthemore, CGG provides the Context Help<br>
facility. A relevant section of CGG manual can be quickly recalled in a web<br>
browser window by pointing with mouse on the GUI item of interest and<br>
pressing the hotkey Alt/h, see Chapter 18 for more info".<br></blockquote><div><span class="gmail_default" style="font-size:small">Some wording like this was put in 2 places in the Introduction.tex file -</span></div><div><span class="gmail_default" style="font-size:small">closer to the beginning in case users don't read very far and under the short</span></div><div><span class="gmail_default" style="font-size:small">description of Chapter 18.<br></span></div><div><span class="gmail_default" style="font-size:small"><br></span></div><div><span class="gmail_default" style="font-size:small">Also added as a "Standard Feature" in Introduction.tex.

<br>
2) Perhaps in View_Listen.html (or in some other subsection of<br>
CINELERRA_GG_Quick_Start_Gu.html) - something like: "If you need more<br>
detailed information on a button or other particular GUI element than is<br>
contained in tooltips, press Alt/h hotkey and you get the HTML page in web<br>
browser with the documentation of the element being currently under mouse".<br></blockquote><div><span class="gmail_default" style="font-size:small">Similar wording put in 2 places in the Quickstart.tex file.</span> </div><blockquote class="gmail_quote" style="margin:0px 0px 0px 0.8ex;border-left:1px solid rgb(204,204,204);padding-left:1ex">
<br>
3) In How_see_short_Description_P.html - about the 4 possibilities of<br>
getting documentation on a plugin in the form of Context Help.<br></blockquote><div><span class="gmail_default" style="font-size:small">Added to the Plugins.tex file.</span> </div><blockquote class="gmail_quote" style="margin:0px 0px 0px 0.8ex;border-left:1px solid rgb(204,204,204);padding-left:1ex">
<br>
4) In Shuttle_key_default_arrange.html - "This page can be quickly requested<br>
from CGG by pressing both Alt keys (left and right) on keyboard followed by<br>
pressing any button on the Shuttle".<br></blockquote><div><span class="gmail_default" style="font-size:small">Added to the Editing.tex file.</span> </div><blockquote class="gmail_quote" style="margin:0px 0px 0px 0.8ex;border-left:1px solid rgb(204,204,204);padding-left:1ex">
<br>
5) Perhaps some tip(s) about Context Help could be added to the list for the<br>
'Tip of the day' window.<br></blockquote><div><span class="gmail_default" style="font-size:small">This was checked into the source code GIT yesterday. BUT the tips are 'rolling' <br></span></div><div><span class="gmail_default" style="font-size:small">so it will only show up the first time and then again when it wraps around.

6) Some phrase about Context Help facility might be added to the list of<br>
documentation sources on the web page<br>

Another addition for the Context Help documentation, for completeness, I<br>
have added as note to BT568 in reply to user fary54: how to configure some<br>
selected browsers to get Context Help pages displayed in same browser tab<br>
rather than in new tabs for each new Alt/h request, I cite this:<br></blockquote><div><span class="gmail_default" style="font-size:small">This is in Trouble.tex (basically as cited).</span></div><div><span class="gmail_default" style="font-size:small"><br></span></div><div><span class="gmail_default" style="font-size:small">Other additions:<br></span></div><div><span class="gmail_default" style="font-size:small">-----------------------<br></span></div><div><span class="gmail_default" style="font-size:small">1) in the Shortcuts.tex file I mentioned the "hotkey Alt/h" in the</span></div><div><span class="gmail_default" style="font-size:small"> verbage because in reality it is a shortcut to get to the manual page.</span> <br></div><div><div style="font-size:small" class="gmail_default">2) in Developer.tex file, I added "what about localization", "why using</div><div style="font-size:small" class="gmail_default">local html files, and small details about "Context_Help.pl".</div><div style="font-size:small" class="gmail_default"><br></div><div style="font-size:small" class="gmail_default">I plan to proofread again tomorrow what I checked in because I kept</div><div style="font-size:small" class="gmail_default">making editing mistakes in vi. ...Phyllis<br></div><br></div></div></div>
