Step by step
- Choose Design to learn modelling, placement, snapping and feature tools.
- Choose Parameters to learn graph nodes, connections, anchors, lists and snapshots.
- Use the search box for a specific command such as Fillet, Polar Array, Anchor or Snapshot.
How help is organised
Topics are task-based rather than source-code based. Each article tells you where the command lives, when to use it, a recommended workflow and the most important behaviour to remember.
- Design topics follow the Home ribbon and Designer viewport workflows.
- Parameters topics follow Parameter Graph nodes, graph organisation and parameter/snapshot workflows.
- Related-topic buttons at the bottom of an article let you continue the workflow without searching again.
Keyboard
F1 opens Help from the main application. Inside Help, Ctrl+F focuses search. Esc clears an active search first; press Esc again to close Help.
Keep in mind
- Help content is embedded in the desktop application so users can use it without an internet connection.
