Hello Peter and all,

Its a classic example of the difference. Someone wants to know how you order dinner in Spanish. You could hand him a dictionary, and he would maybe eventually figure it out. Or you could hand him "See it and say it
in Spanish".

We have a great dictionary.  What we are missing is the book of how
to put the words together for various purposes, like ordering dinner.

That's true.
I'm finishing a new tutorial about drag and drop including 2.9 new features due to Easter time :-) When I'll have some time left (Rev counts about 1600 tokens at the moment) I'll write a kind of tutorial to know which words (expressions) to use according to the task that must be achieved.
With comments of course and a direct links to open the dictionary.
Let me know, all of you, if it could be a good idea.

Bonjour Éric,
Sure that's an excellent idea. "J'achète" (I am buying it) ;-))
If I well understood this idea, it is the possibility to enter the dictionary, non only by a list of function terms (as now) but also starting from possible tasks the user would like to achieve. Very interesting from an ergonomics point of view. Actually, the dictionnary explains for each term what task(s) it allows to achieve ; while the users often would like to find for each task (or at list each kind of tasks) the possible term(s) to achieve it.
In a few words :
dictionnary = terms --> what task they allow to do
your tutorial = tasks -> what possible terms

That would be a great tool, but a lot of work to achieve it (could be little by little ; seems not necessary to be complete to already be useful) :-))

Best regards from Grenoble
André
