<h2>Getting Help</h2>
<p><em>xyscan</em> comes
with an detailed documentation. A simple help browser allows you to navigate through the
documentation - the one you are using right now. You can launch the browser and view
the documentation at any time using <tt>Help->xyscan Help</tt>.</p>
<p>At the beginning
it is also helpful to enable <em>Tool Tips</em> (is on by default). If
enabled, rest with you mouse over an active element of
the user interface and a small text window will pop up telling
you what the specific widget does. Once
you get more familiar with the program, <em>Tool Tips</em> tend to become annoying.
You can switch them off (and back on) at any time using the <tt>Help->Tool
Tips</tt> menu item. <em>xyscan</em> will remember your choice the next time you start it.
</p>
<p>If you have problems
with <em>xyscan</em> it is worth checking for updates. This can be done using the
<code>Help->Check for Updates </code> menu item.
This feature is still in the experimental phase and might not work on all systems
when you connect to the internet through a proxy.</p>
<p>If you think you
found a bug please contact the author (thomas.ullrich@bnl.gov). </p>
