Hear Hear! My pet peeve about Altium in general. The documentation is there, but only in a form useful to an experienced user as reference; virtually *NO* useful examples or explanation of new features. Basically, if you know enough about a topic to search for it by name, you probably already have a pretty good idea how to use it. Otherwise you just have to rely on stumbling across it sooner or later. I have been using DXP/2004 for over a year, and am just starting to get used to Query building for example. I have gotten far better help from this forum than from the Altium documentation...

But it would be nice if there were some documentation with lots of examples on how to achieve global edits. Particularly the use of "Build query" which I do not use because it never delivers what I want it to, because I do not know how to use it properly. This is because the documentation is not there.
