Quick start guide

Location on ribbon: Tab DVD Addin → Group About → Menu About Menu

Command ID: btnOnboarding

What it does

Re-opens the welcome dialog that introduces DVD Addin's main feature groups — Text, AI, Construction, Chat, Graphics and the rest. It is the overview map that tells a new user what the add-in contains and where to look, instead of hunting through every ribbon button. Long-time users open it again from time to time to discover groups they have never touched.

How to use

  1. Go to tab DVD Addin → group AboutAbout MenuQuick start guide.
  2. The overview window opens, listing the main feature groups with a short description of each.
  3. Skim it to identify which group serves your work — Construction for programmes and quantities, Text for string handling, and so on.
  4. Close the window and open the matching ribbon group to get started.
  5. If the window is already open, running the command again brings it to the front rather than opening a second copy.

Example

A site engineer has just had DVDAddin installed and his first jobs are a weekly programme and an inspection record. He opens the Quick start guide and sees that the Construction group already contains Gantt Builder, a two-week lookahead and a set of inspection templates. He goes straight to that ribbon group instead of spending the morning clicking through buttons.

Notes

  • The window is non-modal, so you can leave it open and keep working in the worksheet.
  • Running the command while the window is open just re-activates it; no second window is created.
  • It is an overview only; per-command detail lives in the online documentation.
  • The content follows the current interface language — switch the language and reopen it to see the other version.
  • The window is purely informational and does not enable or configure any feature.
  • About — version, license and support contact details.
  • Preferences — set command defaults once you know your way around.
  • Quick actions — a shortlist of frequently used commands, handy for newcomers.
  • Lang: EN — change the language the overview window is shown in.
