Help Topic Conventions
The following documentation conventions are used in the help:
- Procedures are presented as numbered lists. A single bullet indicates that the procedure has only one step.
- Command font is used for:
- Command line prompts that should be typed exactly as written.
- Script examples.
- Bold type is used for the following:
- Names of windows, workspaces, menu commands, and options.
- Menu commands are often separated by angle brackets (e.g., File > Open).
- Labeled keys on the computer keyboard (e.g., Enter).
- Italic type is used for the following:
- Emphasis.
- Publication titles.
- The plus sign (+) is used between keyboard keys to indicate that you should press the keys at the same time (e.g., “Press Shift+F1” means to press the Shift key and, while holding it down, press the F1 key). You should always depress the modifier key or keys first (e.g., Shift, Ctrl, Alt, or Ctrl+Shift), continue to hold it/them down, and then press the last key in the instruction.
