Table Of Contents
Documentation Structure
In our documentation, we divide information into three different types of topics, according to
their content.
Descriptions of the User Interface
Topics that describe the functionality of user interface items and list the options and
settings of dialogs, panels, or other items.
Descriptions of Basic Concepts
Topics that describe concepts and explain the functionality of a specic software
feature.
Descriptions of Procedures
Topics that provide step-by-step instructions for how to perform a specic task. These
topics often provide an example for why you might want to follow the steps and a brief
summary of the result, including consequences to be aware of.
Because of this division of information, our documentation structure functions as a reference
you can consult for
specic information or instructions as required, rather than a guide you must
read from start to nish.
TIP
Descriptive topics do not describe how to perform a task, and procedural topics do not explain
what something is. To
nd general information about items or concepts, we recommend
searching for them by name, such as “events”. To nd instructions for performing particular
actions, we recommend including a relevant verb in your search, such as
“recording”.
Links at the bottom of topics guide you to further relevant content. You can also check the
sidebar for nearby, related topics in the documentation structure.
