I have completed a first review of Appendix A (Keyboard Shortcuts) and
placed the updated document in the Feedback folder.

I am concerned about the section entitled "Shortcut keys for drawing
objects" (which only occupies one page). It is not an area that I am very
familiar with and was I unable to find / verify operation for many of the
shortcuts mentioned. This might be due to my unfamiliarity (most likely) or
could be due to inaccuracies in the section (less likely but not
impossible). Please could somebody who is familiar with this material give
the page a quick review?

As indicated in a separate thread, I've struggled to follow the
instructions specified in chapter 8 to create a table using the Table
Wizard. Bug 131576 has been raised.

So for the moment I have abandoned my review and removed my name from the
relevant entry in the Guide Status spreadsheet.

Following discussion at this evening's Documentation Team meeting, I have
re-taken Chapter 8 (Base) for second review.

It was agreed that in areas of functionality where the system doesn't
currently work as intended, I should review the draft against the last
known working build which, in this case, was said to be 6.3.5.2.

All,

I have (finally) finished my 2nd review of the draft Getting Started with
Base chapter of the 6.4 Getting Started Guide. Many apologies for the time
this took, but that was mainly due to the number of significant issues that
were found in the document when I downloaded it after the 1st review had
concluded.

I am recommending that this chapter re-starts its review cycle and Dan
Lewis has kindly agreed to do the 1st review of this update.

The updated file is in the Drafts folder (with changes tracked).

Regards,

Steve Fanning
