How To... Instructions... Manual... Guide... HELP!

[drnebula]

This was the sort of thing that takes new users lots of time to figure out. Giving some step by step instructions was a great idea. I love MMF but the manual are not always very helpful. You tell you what the commands are but not how to make them work. It would be great to have a place to store "subroutines" on the web site along with a step by step description. For example, for the Trial object you could have a sample application with just the objects required and a single button. Either the mfx file could be commented or a seperate txt file could be used to explain how the sample was made. I know that you can search the forums and that there are example files (which are really nice, by the way) but that doesn't always work very well. But to have a set of larger set of premade explained files might work better. Just a thought.
