Enhanced Learning SetupBuilder Part I (April 27, 2010)

Women, obviously!

They ask, "why don't women tell us what they want?"

Then we tell them, and they insist on doing the opposite <g>

But does this not keep changing depending on the weather? <vbg> Very
difficult for men you know, very difficult indeed. <g>

Perhaps not so easy, I can't think of an example for that. <G>

Jane,

Of course, I agree with all you have said - NOW if FL is listening - FL -
sounds like a vacation spot! :-D

Another observation is this - While the Documentation Roadmap help topic
does a good job of detailing the Example Projects Package and your CHM -

I think that material needs to be copied to the Getting Started topic as
well because I think many miss the point - the Example Projects Package IS
an additional download - and I have seen enough ask over time - where are
the examples?

Something else on my wish list - I would LOVE for this to appear - once
Learning SetupBuilder Part I is installed - it will appear as a menu
selection under Help Topics in the SB IDE when no projects are loaded!

Hehehehe...

I think the "Learning SetupBuilder" document is essential and I'll change
the deployment method soon. Examples will still be installed per-user, but
the Learning SetupBuilder will be per-machine. And it will appear as a menu
item under Help Topics in the SB IDE.

Friedrich,

FL as in Florida! :-D

As we all know, the German FL is an industrial non-stop working machine!

Thank you! Thank you! Thank you!

We all appreciate the extensive standard docs that come with SetupBuilder,
but with Jane's extensive and impressive writing skills coupled with
illustrative screens shots that help one to zero in on a technical concept
in short order -

and with your new deployment methods - it will finally bring this resource
to a more prominent placement in the HelpDesk area, and for most of us -
the "light will go on quicker" as more and more discover and use this
resource.

Hey, some of us read! The problem is that those of us who do read
typically have to support people who don't read but assume that "It Must
Be Easy". Those people are unfortunately capable of switching from one
project/tool to the next far faster than those of us who read can keep
up, given the amount of reading that should be done to actually make it
"Easy"(or at least actually usable or stable).
