Why did they change the Help system? :realmad:
I use "AutoCAD Civil 3D as AutoCAD 2011" quite often for basic drafting and stuff not related to Civil 3D. If I hit F1, Internet Explorer opens up with the help file and it open the help files from somewhere on the internet. What confuses me is that I don't see any help for AutoCAD with the online version. Just help for Civil 3D.
What confuses me even more is this:
I open up "AutoCAD Civil 3D 2011 Metric" and hit F1 and the old help file appears. Firstly, it open the old help system. It doesn't go online. And secondly, help for AutoCAD in available.
To sum it up:
- The on-line version is a lot slower than the old off-line version.
- With old system, if you go to the index tab and start typing, it goes to the words starting with the letters that you have typed. With the new one, you have to click on view.
- If you have a slow internet connection, you are screwed.
- It doesn't use you're default browser.
- You waste a lot of time.
I may be wrong with this, but it's not working for me.
