Change to Tutorials
« on: 2019 September 22 14:20:00 »
I'm a newbie evaluating the PixInsight trial version with my monitor, which is set to its highest resolution of 1280x1024.  As such, I can't display all the icons across the top of my screen.  This makes it very frustrating trying to follow the tutorials when the tutorial cursor is clicking on some icon which I can't identify.  So I don't know what function the tutorial is executing.  I can only make an educated guess as to what function the icon performs.
I suggest changing the tutorials to show a popup balloon defining which icon is being referred to.  This would make my life much easier.  It is unreasonable to ask newbies to upgrade their monitors just to investigate a trial version. 
Thanks for your consideration.

I apologize for the late reply.  I've been working through computer problems.
I am working through the first few of Harry Page's tutorials where he clicks on those tiny icons.  I can't relate some of the icons to their associated process, which makes cloning the tutorial step by step difficult.
