Recently I noticed a comment regarding the PDF User Guide which implied that now when you select it from the Help menu within LC it gets generated on the fly from the guides present in the Dictionary.
So I thought I would give it a go. I am using LC8.1DP2 In less time than it took to generate ONE of the guides in the Dictionary window, Preview opened (I am on a Mac) and the "Release Notes..." appeared. Looking at the top of the window I noticed there were some 684 pages in these "release notes". I clicked up in "view menu" and selected "Table of Contents" and there they were, all the guides and entries for each subsection. In fact the subsection entries went deeper than you can see within LC as it only show two levels of heading in the dictionary side panel. They appear MUCH faster than looking at them in LC's dictionary pane. They have the complete table of contents. They are of course now fully searchable (once you give time for your PDF reader to index them.) Some caveats at this time: Not all internal nor external links seem to work. Overall a brilliant addition to the IDE. Well done!
