Edit:
Since I started this threat, I edit it right now.
The old link is broken, and there is a new manual with even 30 pages more! Thanks to albert0984 for the alert and MarcLarcher for the addition for spanish users.
When this welcome document is revised, could there be a date or revision number close to the front page, so that one can immediately see that it is different?
Following Daniel’s promise of a manual after Christmas I was watching this forum, but for some reason didn’t see this thread. Yesterday a search on “Manual” found it, among about 340 others which included the word “manual”.
I think that this deserve greater prominence, perhaps in the “announcements” at the top of the forum, or the FAQ page.
I have searched for this on the Dorico website, but failed to find my way to it.
I’m pleased to have it, and hope that others can find their way to it easily. I would expect a link to the manual from within Dorico via the Help tab.
Well, David, actually this manual has just 5 more pages than the previous one, so it was nothing like a revolution
[edit] Ok, it really has changed ! And it does exist in different localisations
Sorry to be a pain, but could we have an updated date of revision on the first page, or somewhere, or even in the name of the file, so that we can see that it has been changed? “dorico_en.pdf” is not helpful enough.
Why does this latest manual–the third version–not even mention tokens, much less not list those available?
No description of what they are, no link to a list, no nothing.
I’ll see your tokens and raise you a complete absence of the Play mode*.
As with much of Dorico, it’s obviously a work in progress. All good things come to those who wait.
(* Talking of which, the more I look at it, the more I think Print and Play are in the wrong order as tabs. Setup, Write, Engrave and Print are closely linked in terms of notation and appearance. Play is a different beast altogether, it’s got more in common with the mixer than it has with the other four tabs.)
