Help documentation for Mozilla Calendar |
|
</h3> |
|
|
|
<p> |
<p> |
The Calendar Help project aims to provide help documentation | There are several projects here, all related to |
for end users of Mozilla Calendar: | <a href="http://www.mozilla.org/projects/calendar/">Mozilla Calendar</a>, |
<ul> | |
<li>In all Calendar versions (the extensions for | |
<a href="http://www.mozilla.org/products/thunderbird/">Thunderbird</a>, | |
<a href="http://www.mozilla.org/products/firefox/">Firefox</a> and | |
<a href="http://www.mozilla.org/products/mozilla1.x/">Mozilla Application Suite</a>, | |
and the standalone | |
<a href="http://www.mozilla.org/projects/calendar/sunbird.html">Sunbird</a> |
<a href="http://www.mozilla.org/projects/calendar/sunbird.html">Sunbird</a> |
)</li> | and |
<li>On all operating system platforms that Calendar and Sunbrd run on</li> | <a href="http://wiki.mozilla.org/Calendar:Lightning">Lightning</a>. |
<li>In English and all Calendar and Sunbird's other languages</li> | |
</ul> | |
</p> | |
| |
<h4>How Calendar Help works</h4> | |
<p> | |
You normally install Calendar Help as an extension. | |
It is also available <a href="open.xul">online</a>, but the | |
online version is experimental and it has some limitations. | |
</p> | |
| |
<p> | |
When you are using your Calendar application | |
with the Calendar Help extension, there is a new item in the | |
Help menu: Context Help. | |
This item opens a separate help window that contains the help, | |
with a table of contents, index, search facility and glossary. | |
</p> | |
| |
<p> | |
The F1 key (or Help key) opens the help if it is not already open, | |
and switches to the topic that describes the element in the user interface | |
that has keyboard focus. | |
</p> | |
| |
<p> | |
If you are working with a dialog, a Help button at the bottom of the dialog window | |
opens the help if it is not already open, | |
and switches to the topic that describes the dialog. | |
</p> | |
| |
<p> | |
For a picture of the prototype, see the | |
<a href="screenshots.html">screenshots</a> page. | |
Future versions will look a little different, | |
because of changes in the help viewer. | |
</p> | |
| |
<h4>Current status</h4> | |
<p> | |
The current version 0.5.1 of Calendar Help documents most of the user interface | |
in Sunbird and Calendar extensions. | |
It also contains information on customizing Calendar, on servers and on troubleshooting. | |
</p> | |
| |
<p> | |
A test version 0.6 of Calendar Help is available for nightly test builds of Sunbird 0.2+. | |
These builds are not all stable, so they are not recommended for general use. | |
Version 0.6 of Calendar Help does not completely document Sunbird 0.2+, | |
but it will gradually improve as the content is reviewed and updated. | |
</p> | |
| |
<p><b>Note: </b> | |
There is no relationship between the version numbers of Calendar Help, | |
Sunbird, and the Calendar extension. | |
The projects are not synchronized. | |
</p> | |
| |
<p> | |

The online version is built from the same source text as the installable version. | |
At times, the online version might contain more recent revisions than | |
the installable version. | |
However the online version is currently frozen while work progresses on | |
version 0.6. | |
</p> | |
| |
<p> | |
The online version has some limitations: | |
</p> | |
| |
<ul class="plain-list"> | |
<li>It only works in Mozilla browsers.</li> | |
<li>It contains only the help for Windows versions, so Macintosh and Unix users might find it a little less easy to use..</li> | |
<li>It combines the help for Sunbird and the help for Calendar extensions, | |
so some topics are less easy to understand.</li> | |
<li>It does not support the F1 key to go directly to a help topic related to a field in the user interface.</li> | |
</ul> | |
