That's nice but what's needed is that we pitch in and review the tutorials together, please.
Your proposed solution here will entail that the tutorials will never get updated -- unless you assume that I'll be doing that on my own without your involvement? Here's the one that's been discussed in this thread, the code is now cleaned up and the images are removed: https://netbeans.apache.org/tutorials/nbm-xmleditor.html Anyone is welcome to work through the tutorial, create screenshots as you go along, and provide a pull request to include them in the tutorial. Now, which tutorial shall we work on next? Gj On Sat, Mar 6, 2021 at 10:23 PM slipbits <[email protected]> wrote: > Don't know if this helps.
