Tips for using SDS2 Help

Tip 1: Context-sensitive help is a part of this program. Click the button at the bottom right of almost any window in a SDS2 program. The precise portion of Help that discusses the window you are on will open in a browser.

Tip 2: Words and phrases directly transcribed from the SDS2 program itself are indicated using italics. Double quotes identify the names of options, among other things. Items in single quotes always indicate settings.
