Question

Documentation needs something that is called "Search Bar"

Before assuming that there's no way to search for nodes inside the Substance 3D Designer documentation Im gonna ask first.

Is there anyway inside the Substance 3D Designer user guide to search for a keyword or something? AND I don't mean the "search adope support" because it takes you to places. I mean inside the guide itself. 

IF there's one that I somehow missed kindly note it for me, IF not please for the love of god add a search bar.

Also I believe an offline version of the documentation wont harm anyone. TY

Hi @PTsHunter,

 

Thank you for the feedback.

 

Trust me, we're probably the first ones to be bothered by the current search function inside the documentation. We always end up in a Photoshop tutorial. However, I'm afraid this is something that can't really change, at least for now.

 

A workwaround is to go to that page that gathers all documented nodes and make a CTRL + F search. Not exactly what you're looking for, but maybe it can help.

 

Regarding an offline documentation, there were some discussions on the topic, but considering we're weekly updating it and that its structure is thought for an online usage ; building a new one just for offline sessions is not one of our current focus.

 

Best regards,
