This is now added. Tutorials are now generated for all checklists at runtime. They are pretty basic, but it's a nice "freebie". One future enhancement i've just thought off might be to enhance the checklist so that an item can have a marker associated with it as we have with tutorials. A user could then click on a checklist item to have the appropriate cockpit control highlighted. This further blurs the line between the checklist and tutorial functions, but users might find the self-pacing aspect of checklists easier to use than the forced pace of the tutorial. Useful? Taking things a bit too far? -Stuart ------------------------------------------------------------------------------ Free Next-Gen Firewall Hardware Offer Buy your Sophos next-gen firewall before the end March 2013 and get the hardware for free!
