1.7.0.134 RC2 Macro pack hyperlink frustration.


Recommended Posts

Not only RC2 but the hyperlink to the free macro pack in the help leads users along a blind alley where no download occurs after pressing download. Better that the hyperlink opened in safari externally rather than in app browser.

Thanks Alfred, it’s really difficult to explain to a newbie how to get out of that blind alley too and why it happens.

Tell them to use a browser, it's not hard to see why an OS "help system" is not allowed to show a downloaded file. The hyperlink should open in a new window yes.
