Interesting idea. So it becomes less "here's the reference manual" and more "here's a how-to for a given scenario". I can see that working. One of my two big ambitions for Potlatch 1.0 is online help; the other one is newbie-friendly tagging. Both of these are going to have to wait for the AS3 rewrite, I think, because AS3's UI components are just streets ahead of anything available in AS1/Ming - it'll take away 50% of the work required. But I wonder whether a good interim solution might be for Potlatch to trigger the JS pop-up panel (as used for the map key, search results, export etc.) when you clicked "Help" - which would then call up a set of static help pages. cheers Richard -- View this message in context: http://www.nabble.com/Potlatch-again-tp21403933p21453405.html Sent from the OpenStreetMap - General mailing list archive at Nabble.com. _______________________________________________ talk mailing list [email protected] http://lists.openstreetmap.org/listinfo/talk
