Is the user manual under the Help menu the only one?

Post by cadcoke5 »

I come from a background of doing Computer Aided Drafting. So, the programs I use are fairly complex, and so have a fairly large manual to document the program. And, while a very large manual can be intimidating, if a lot of information is omitted, then that can be frustrating unto itself.

Is the manual available under the Help menu just a getting-started manual, and perhaps the full manual is located somewhere else?

Yes, Joe! I'm a SCAL volunteer who wrote a 282 page SCAL5 user manual and it should meet your needs:

The video links are for a paid classroom that helps support my volunteer activities. But, from the sounds of it, you're someone who has no issues with reading. :) Please post if you have any questions.

It is disappointing that Craft Edge didn't create a more thorough user manual. There isn't even an Index, and you cannot search the manual. But, I guess those shortcomings is what allows you to sell your own work. Thanks for offering the print version for free.

I don't think you understood what I provided in my link. My PDF file IS searchable, IS thorough, and has a detailed Table of Contents. I didn't create an Index because of the fact it's a PDF file and you can use Ctrl+F to find anything you need.
