User's Guide 2013 as CHM

Post by Hirazi Blue » 16 May 2012, 21:18

Just saw this on the Softimage WIKI
(someone has to visit once in a while - to water the plants, to feed the goldfish & to pick up the mail! :D)

Autodesk kindly generated a Microsoft Compiled HTML Help (CHM) file of the 2013 User's Guide.
You can get it from here (It's 210 Mb download)
;)
Stay safe, sane & healthy!

nice!

thanks for the tip, I hate the online help. You always end up with a browser full of the same pages :-\

I like an online sdk feature when you select a command in the script editor and press F1 to go straight to the page with description. I'm not sure if it works for .chm as well

First of all @ActionArt - Yes, thanks for reminding me, I went back to check... ;)

@Rork - I agree...
And seriously, they should make a CHM for the SDK docs as well...

And @iamVFX - I don't think this is possible now, the way the "new" online docs are hooked
into the software (and there not being an SDK-CHM (yet?)), but when the software still used CHM
as its main means of documentation, this was possible also, so its probably more about the way
the documentation is being called currently than a "matter of principle"...
Stay safe, sane & healthy!
