Pd-0.45.0 ("test") compiled 17:10:02 Aug 8 2013
What Happens
- [pd] subpatch right-click help opens canvas-help.pd which is really the help patch for [table]
- there is a pd-help.pd for subpatches, accessible from [inlet] [inlet~] [outlet] [outlet~] right-click help
- [table] right-click help opens canvas-help.pd
- help browser 5.reference doesn't list any table-help.pd
- empty canvas space right-click help opens help-intro.pd
What I Expected
- [pd] -> pd-help.pd
- [table] -> table-help.pd (with same or better content as current canvas-help.pd)
- empty space -> canvas-help.pd which could explain the process of creating patches using mouse and keyboard etc
- "object index" (or similar) menu item in help menu -> help-intro.pd
