Mac Command Bar

When are the auto-pilot features going to be included on the command bar? I'm just wondering if I'm dense or we're just not there yet on the Alpha release. Specifically I'm wondering about the Files, Guides, Tools and Shortcuts menus shown in the video tutorial.

Thanks. If it's already covered somewhere in the Forum, just point me in the right direction.

Files, Guides, and Tools are on the Menu Bar. Shortcuts have not been implemented yet.

Thanks Jack, I'm often not the Master of the Obvious, I see exactly where. Looks different than in the tutorial.

Ah, Holy Week!

Perhaps. I'm a Mac User. I don't need tutorials! [:D] Actually, that's not true, but it was the predominant Mac mindset in the early days.

You're right, Jack!

With the Mac things are "intuitive". The trouble I found in moving from Windows to Mac a few months back was that when everything is intuitive, then nothing is. It took me a long time to figure out what things were. That I ought to click those funny triangles, because there were options hidden there. It took me 2 weeks to figure out how the print functions were accessed in the print dialog boxes. It's the same in Logos 4 Mac. What is obvious to one user is far from obvious to another. So many functions are hidden behind innocuous-looking buttons and icons. And there is a whole world hidden in the right-click. In fact, I now try to right-click everything – just in case.

Ah, the learning curve keeps me humble!

Every blessing

Then why am I now reading a 317 page manual on a word processor? [:D] Mellel can do one very important thing that Word for Mac can not do. It can handle Hebrew text perfectly. However, it has a very steep learning curve.
