Using the Help system

The Help that is available from within the program is the most comprehensive source of information for VideoStudio. The Help system provides two ways to find information. You can choose a topic from the Contents pane, or use the Search box to search for specific words and phrases. You can also print topics from the Help.

An Internet connection is required to view the Help. If you work offline on a regular basis, you can download a PDF copy of the information (Help > User Guide (PDF)).

To use the Help system

1 Do one of the following:

• Click Help > Help topics.

• Press F1.

2 In the Help window, do one of the following:

• Contents pane (on left) — browse through topics in the Help

• Search box (along top of window) — search the full text of the Help for a particular word or phrase (enclosed in quotation marks). For example, if you are looking for information about a specific tool or command, you can type the name of the tool or command, such as Trimming, to display a list of relevant topics.
