Below are some notes about things I did not understand, or other things that I could not edit. First a few general notes; I think these tutorials are too complicated for a beginner. I think that more complex concepts that are not necessary for a beginner should be somehow set-off from the rest of the text. I suggest creating "Advanced" boxes like the "Hint" boxes you already have.

There are a large number of English spelling errors. You might consider activating an English language spelling checker in Windows, so the words that are misspelled will be underlined in red for you.


I am uncertain what the following section means;

Pane Sharing

As an alternative to pane-splitting, you can get your windows to share a space – they will share a single pane. You choose the form to be seen from the tabs displayed at the edge of the pane. Drag the floating form so that the mouse cursor is over the top of the form. There are two slight variations on this, depending on the original form occupying the space. The form can be:

  • Docked on the side
  • Filling the spare space in the middle (a ‘Document’ form)

I have edited the two items to say;

  • Docked on the Side, and reduced to a tab.
  • Sharing the display space (a ‘Document’ form)

Please correct the above two items if my understanding of the feature is wrong.
