Where's the good documentation?

I’m new to Cubase, and finding the documentation laughable. Example:

Automation Tracks
Most of the tracks in your project have automation tracks, one for each automated parameter.
To show automation tracks, open them.
(The complete content of steinberg.help/cubase_pro/v13/en/cubase_nuendo/topics/automation/automation_automation_tracks_c.html )

You’re kidding, right? No description of where the open button or menu item is? Or how you open more than one automation lane on a track? (I spent a lot of fruitless time on that one.)

The videos are better, but they move through features with lightning speed, and being hosted on YouTube there’s not a move forward/back by 10 secs. control.

This is the documentation for the vaunted Cubase that I’ve looked up to for years? Where’s the good stuff?

So, we have this:

Clicking on the first option gives this one, which is the one you probably want:

I can’t say I’m a fan of Steinberg’s user manuals, but you’ve made poor effort here it would seem.

How about just advancing to the next page?

Use your keyboard left/right arrow keys for +/- 5 second jumps.
