2014-03-14Revision of Profile part of manualGravatar Willem Ferguson
The last figures in the manual using the Unity desktop have been replaced with equivalent figures using Gnome 3. There should now be no figures remaining from Unity. This is a revision of the profile part of the manual in the light of the changes for V4.1. Text has been moved around, some new text added or rewritten. Graphics has been replaced to reflect the UI for V4.1, including Tomaz's button bar and Louisa's new buttons for that bar.

2014-02-22User manual: gps coordinates are tied to location namesGravatar Dirk Hohndel
While it seems obvious that you need a named dive site in order to track its coordinates, apparently people try to have no location name but distinct coordinates which at this time we do not support. See #440 Signed-off-by: Dirk Hohndel <dirk@hohndel.org>

Except for the images involving the dive profile, all the images now are from Gnome 3. Images for dive profile awaits finalisation of the new dive profile.

2014-01-31User manual: Small text updates and new screenshotsGravatar Willem Ferguson
This adds Gnome-based screenshots to the manual for most of the images not involving the profile. More of the images remain to be done. I rewrote small sections of the text to reflect some of the recent changes. Several images still need to be replaced. The profile images will be done once the profile panel has been finalised. Some text also still needs working. Signed-off-by: Willem Ferguson <willem@willem-Precision-M4700.(none)> Signed-off-by: Dirk Hohndel <dirk@hohndel.org>

2013-12-20Include the user-manual.html file in the git treeGravatar Dirk Hohndel
This way when building Subsurface asciidoc is not necessary at all - except if you want to work on the user manual and want to see the result of your work. Previously the build wouldn't fail without asciidoc, but there would be no working user manual when pressing F1 from within the application. This solves the problem by shipping the HTML file with the sources. Signed-off-by: Dirk Hohndel <dirk@hohndel.org>
