Link to XDP Manual

@boy

no issue with that... of course there are lots of things that slow me down in xara such as the blue bounding boxes, which at least can be switched out in registry

two monitors with a desktop shortcut on the second would be quick but when I have a second monitor active I'm usually using it for somrthing other than desktop

can use virtual desktops though if you have windows 10 that supports them and toggle with winkey+ctrl+ leftarrow/rightarrow

can always open the PDF manual the same time as xara and use the taskbar; maybe even quicker still

@acorn - sure but I don't do that, I am well used to manuals being accessed from outside the program in question, and opening them [seperately] when I open the program, be they downloaded PDFs or online

Sorry handrawn, we are forced (1) to ignore and never press Help > PDF Manual --> https://dl03.magix.net/manual_designerprox18_en.pdf and (2) to bend over backwards and come up with a non-intuitive approach for each and every updated manual.

It took Xara until version 18 to get the license.rtf file in the top distribution folder to open at all.
Deploy the PDF and change the config link is not a big ask.

no need to be sorry I am not disagreeing with you, just trying to be pragmatic dealing with what is

ironically the more the program updates the more the manual needs updating; some other programs that is not the case [by which I mean they only update once/twice maybe, a year]
