Having an internal browser for help seems quite strange and old-fashioned to me. Also, the current version is far from usable. Nowadays, if there is some problem, you open a browser and google it. If it isn't answered in some forum immediately, you will at least find the documentation and try to resolve it there. Regarding this F1 thing - no one will get it. Best you can do is put some big inviting help button on the dialog that might need explanation. (But only if there is some documentation available.) It's quite pointless to press F1 and get an empty page each time. Dirk Stöcker wrote: > Yes. External browsers have too many drawbacks regarding visibility and > launching.
