Suggestion for Documentation and menu references

[aef03]

I have been using and loving ImgBurn for a couple years now.

 

I recently came up against the 8 Levels of directories limitation.

 

I searched and searched and kept finding references like this in the documentation and posts on this site:

 

Advanced -> Restrictions -> ISO9660 -> Allow More Than 8 Directory Levels.

 

Options -> Preserve full pathnames

 

I write detailed technical labs for computer classes and not being able to find the settings was very frustrating.

 

What is missing from the above references is the starting point.

 

Whenever I see references like the above that have no starting point, I take the implied starting point to be the standard Windows toolbar that contains the file menu, etc.

 

From the default 'EZ Picker" mode the only "Options" or "Advanced" references I could find were under "Tools -> Settings"

 

However, all the above references assume any other mode rather than "Ez-Picker"

 

This was also coupled with an assumption that all settings for a specific burn could be set for their default in "Tools -> Settings"

 

It would be good if all these references were prefaced appropriately.

 

Such as "Mode -> Build -> Advanced (Tab) -> Restrictions -> ISO9660 -> Allow More Than 8 Directory Levels."

 

Or "From Build Mode, Advanced (Tab)-> Restrictions -> ISO9660 -> Allow More Than 8 Directory Levels."

 

Essentially assuming that every instruction must be valid from the default first UI presented will make them work for new users like myself and equally well for those who know the product better.

 

I know from writing labs for years that in the long run this will save you a lot more time than simply leaving people to pound their head on it.

 

Loving IMG Burn - thanks for great software!
