add page numbers to the manual

Post by p8guitar »

I'd like to suggest a real killer feature: please add numbers to the pages of the manual, so that it is possible to easily find a topic that you see in the table of contents. Or at least make the page numbers match - now it is not possible to navigate just by "go to page...", you have to add the number of the pages of the table of contents to the number that is shown there.
I hope the screenshots make it clear what I mean:
manual - tables of content.jpg
manual - go to page 8.jpg
manual - go to page 8.jpg (28.94 KiB) Viewed 6307 times
page number doesn't match.jpg

We're working on this.

You're not gonna print those 260 pages, are you? ;)

Any news about this? I don't think it should be too difficult to add page numbers.

Or you could add links, so that when you click on a topic in the table of contents you kind of magically get to the topic immediately? It's 2019 guys, not 1990.

For me the page numbers are there, and the topic clicky also works:

Sorry Zoltán, I didn't mention that I use Resolume 6, not 7. But very nice that this works now in Resolume 7!

I bought it but I cannot use Resolume 7, because most of the FFGL plug-ins that I use have not been updated to 2.0 (and I wonder if they will ever be ... :( ).

The new manual has the new features of v7, but the v6 features are still included in v7, so most of the v7 manual still applies to v6.
You know, the online support page is also great and searchable.
You can even switch between versions where there are differences between v7 and v6
