This is the panel at the top right of your screen. You will see it as you first open the manual and then it will fold itself away leaving just a small icon:
a Green reading book - to denote BROWSING MODE
a Red pen - to denote EDITING or ADVANCED modes
Tapping on that icon (top right corner of your screen) will make the hidden panel unfold and reveal itself again.
What is it for?
It is where you can Log in as a member of a particular manual (or "space") and you can set the "mode" to determine how the manual behaves (how much you want to interact with the content). It is also one place from which you can open a page to give Feedback please!
If you are not logged in then you only have access to the BROWSING mode. This is the simplest way to use the manual. It is just a website to all intents and puposes - you can open and close pages, and that is it.
If you have logged in then this option will appear. When you select it you will see that each page (Tiddler) that opens now has an "edit" icon in the top right corner; clicking this will allow you to start to Edit content in your manual.
NOTE: Some pages have buttons embedded in the middle of their content to start you off on Editing brand new material (for instance + Manualize our work, which will generate new pages ready for you to edit...)
if you already have a page (such as + Manualize our work) open when you switch to EDIT MODE, then these buttons won't appear until you have CLOSED that page, and then reopen it (you can look in the History recorder to find it again.)
We also include this link, as we do want you to see it often and think of giving us feedback often! We rely on this to shape and improve the manual. Feedback can be very quick to give:
From very quick reports of broken links, or glitches (if you can use the SNAPSHOT to send us a link to the broken bit, that would be fantastic!)
To spending just a few minutes to fill in a short questionnaire.
Or you can tell us we are doing OK, and make our day.
