Everyone has there own way of digesting data...While I realize that all the Docs are accessible from the Start Menu (and somewhere I've now forgotten on the Mac:-)) It would be GREAT to be able to drag and drop PDFs in and out of a folder and have them linked to in PT's help menu. Buy a new piece of gear or a plug? Drop it in the folder for a week or two and then drag it back out when your done with it.

Count me in, though I assign mine a Shortcut Key. ;)

I would like to see smart tags embedded in the documentation so the product comes with documentation that is accurate for the product you bought. Most windows users could give a rats ass about Apple control key short cuts. They would like to learn as quickly as possible the windows control key short cuts from a menu guide that models their working environment. :rolleyes:

Funny you mentioned this, I was just working with a new VI and wished I had access to the PDF manual in the Pro Tools menu for quick access instead of surfing my computer looking for it. :eek:

+1 billion on this feature!

I can do this in my "other DAW" quite easily (http://img16.imageshack.us/img16/340/menudocs.png) by the way. :D :D

Maybe a new tab called "Library"? You don't want it to just link to a folder though-you really want the stuff arranged in order in a menu so its easy to find.

EDIT: I just clicked the link and thats pretty much the ticket.
