offline & hover on help

[youamer]

hi,

whenever I press control+F1, C4D takes me to online help. Can I have offline, local help?

can we enable tooltip/bubble help for fields when hovering over them like in Blender 3D? see attached image

thanks

Hi youamer and welcome to the forum.

Offline help is available when you go to the “Help" menu and click “show help" - if installed.



When hovering over icons, you will see tooltips.



Extract from the installation guide:

9. Installing languages, documentation and updates manually
If your computer is not connected to the internet or if you have disabled the automatic Online Updater, no updates, additional languages or documentation can be displayed or installed. These items must be installed manually.
Corresponding c4dupdate les can be found online at the MAXON website at www. maxon.net. These les must be made accessible for your computer (e.g., via a computer that is connected to the internet and in turn copied onto a USB stick or from a company server, etc.).
