Ok. Here is an attempt:

1. Documentation already notes that a selection is needed.
2. I think you have tested with a version that now has the "For Selected Entry"
   label above the "Apply to all..." option, which should help to emphasize
   that this option requires a selection.

Propose (in relation to "Apply to all..." option in [1]):

1. Drop the sentence:  "You cannot use the function for an Entry that you
entered manually in this dialog."   (because it is false).

2. Drop "and captions" in the second sentence in the first paragraph, because
(a) it is covered by "frame" and (b) if the caption is taken out of the frame
(as some persons do), then it can be indexed.

3. Insert the sentence: "For a modified entry, the match is conducted on the
original selection, but the modified entry is inserted."  between the first and
third sentences in the first paragraph.

Combining 2 and 3, the result would be:

Automatically marks all other occurrences of the selected text in the document.
For a modified entry, the match is conducted on the original selection, but the
modified entry is inserted as the index entry. Text in headers, footers, and
frames is not included.
