That's reasonable.
Although someone like me that starts Constructor up and uses it and then goes to the manual for help with specific problems won't find this (BTW, the help files don't show page numbers but I found what you referred to in a section titled "User Interface Features"). Perhaps a hot-link to this section could be added at the end of the screen for each editor window so that people who drop into the middle of the help file get pointed to the critical facts relating to using the editor windows.
