Hans has posted here http://forum.simutrans.com/index.php?topic=9432.msg88451#msg88451. The line-height is to low.

So I had an idea about a new simutrans help-center. I will not write a lot of words. My picture is speaking by itself. (I hope so.)
Click for fullsize:


Edit: If on the left side "Climate Control" is choosen, on the right side the helptext should be shown. ;)

Very nice, but:
1) left box could be smaller
2) there should be a toggle to show/hide it
3) I would put in a white box also the actual help text on the right

1. Not really. Under Point "General Help" is a long link "mouse Help". Can you see at Hans Screen.
2. What should be toggled?

Spike

Give it a book-graphics background ;)

I like the idea of having the index and one help text open the same time. This should help if players want to read the texts like a manual.

Thank you. I hope the programmers think so, too.

This is a nice one for exparimenting on my CEGUI project, too, I'll try to replicate it.

Actually, this is in in r5446. But now languages need to keep their general.txt up to date.

Maybe the index should be also build by itself; but on the other hand some structure is better of course.
