The reason I added the underlining was because people do not read words or letters but patterns; so I was trying to make the pattern they saw in the manual the same as the pattern they saw on the interface. But by default you don't see the underlining, only if you keep the ALT key pressed. (At least here on Windows. Another annotation: - You added in the Tutorial: "Hint: you cannot use “ on page ” to fix this example because Section 1.2 is on the same page; you will need to use separate cross-references selected from the “Format” options." But this is not the case for me. Albeit the label is on the same page, I get "see Section 1.2, which can be found on page 2". So the description in the tutorial is correct. regards Uwe

The reason I added the underlining was because people do not read words or letters but patterns; so I was trying to make the pattern they saw in the manual the same as the pattern they saw on the interface. This makes it easier to associate the manual with the interface. I was assuming that these associations would normally remain the same. Unfortunately, I have continued this through the User Guide and Additional Features manual as well for consistency. John --
