π Main Menu & FeaturesΒΆ
This section is the reference part of the manual. It follows the left-hand button bar of the app exactly: one page per button, in the same order as the buttons appear. Pages that are indented belong to a function that lives inside the panel of the button above them, not to a button of its own.

Two buttons are not always there
App Settings only appears in the native app versions (Windows, macOS, iOS, Android). The free web version and the Enterprise Edition run in the browser, where the browser's own zoom does the same job. A Download button may additionally appear above Knowledge Base, depending on how the installation is configured.

Use the search at the top of the page β it searches all pages of this manual at once. The Keyboard Shortcuts page lists every key combination in one place.
