I have no idea what exactly you think is missing. I did some basic testing of the embedded help and it appears to work. Maybe something is missing? I don't know. All I know is until you get concrete with your concern we're just going to go around in circles on this. >> >> Again, if you think something is missing in 4.0, enter a defect in BZ on >> it. >> >> Thanks! >> > > No need to thank me for saying my opinion. > > I should really never have raised this issue.

Writing a BZ issue is how you show that you have a concrete issue. It is how we prioritize issues and track them to resolution. It is a much better approach than reporting things in a unrelated thread like this one, "Translation for AOO 4.0". No one should feel insulted or "silenced" by being asked to enter their issue into an issue tracking system. I don't know if you noticed, but we just finished the test pass on the sidebar and have 65 new issues because of this. Unless you get your issue into BZ it is likely to be forgotten as soon as this thread scrolls from view and missed by anyone who did not suspect documentation issues to be reported in a response to a translation thread.
