Why is the offline help not identical with the online help and can this be fixed?


Indeed! But anything can be fixed. 😉

All it needs is sufficient effort from people. Sadly, I am not available for at least a month as I have taken on a job looking at integrating the GNU linear programming library and the Julia language and a decent IDE 😷 for a university.

But a quick thinkee or 2.

1. The online and offline help should be excised from the IDE and a proper model made. The offline mode, while not an "afterthought", was really a thing tacked on to drop traffic on Benoit's bosses servers. As such a redesign is suggested at this point in time.

2. There are many things available in the online version and not in the offline (copying code from examples for e.g.) and vice versa.

Would love to get involved but as I said
