Possibility to have effect per row

Yes i am totally aware that the manual is maybe not the best one and much things can be better.
But it’s one of the hardest things to do if you are doing everything alone. And involving someone else totally failed already, so here I am with the best I can do without losing time on the firmware etc itself.
I try to make it better with every version.

It's a serious challenge to find good partners for these kinds of things. I think we all appreciate that you're taking notes from the community for improvements at each iteration, although it probably isn't recognized nearly enough.

So, kind thanks to you!! It's a colossal project and it's going great!

As an owner with all expanders, I like this option best (rather than separating expander docs into separate PDFs) as I am often searching to figure out what I can do which way with which track type and it is helpful to find everything with one search. Especially as I’m usually using my tablet where the experience is more focused on a single document.

As an additional option for your list above, perhaps some kind of indicator running vertically through one of the page margins? That way it could be seen at any scroll point but without impacting formatting, readability, etc. of the page text.

For when Thomas inevitably reads through these comments: Thomas, if the source files for the manual are maintained in a format amenable to version control then I’m sure that a few of us would be happy to open pull requests against the manual. I’ve definitely noticed the occasional inconsistency, opportunity for second-language English improvement, etc. and would be happy to contribute.

Crazy timing! Same thought, same time!

Well, It’s on github and Open Document format. Maybe I should open it for the public to edit?

If you are open to giving external contribution another try, I’m sure that all of us here would be happy to comply with whatever restrictions you’d like to place on contribution, whether it be to avoid large-scale changes, to propose changes by opening Issues first, or whatever you think would help keep things from going off the rails.
