Workshop Manuals available?

I was thinking of just drawing lines between the list and the exploded views for ambiguous things, but I guess it quickly gets kind of messy.. Example below.

It would be great if the tool could just have an option to display an item/part number label next to each item in the view..

That's funny. I put the same call-outs on the same diagram to see how it would look. It does get a bit busy. I was also looking for a method that @Logsplitter could use on an iPad.

What I’m going to try next is to use the Apple Pencil to write the item numbers against each part in the exploded views. It seems that the items with many parts have the exploded views broken down into sections , so it shouldn’t get too busy. I’ve tried adding text to files but that is so laborious.
Watch the space. I’ve ordered an Apple Pencil as seems a neat and easy way to add hand written item numbers. Quite messy using your finger.

Good move I always revert to using the pencil on my iPad when I need to select fine detail

Got my logon details but the loading ring just keeps spinning around and never gets anywhere, is there a trick to making this work ?

I'm not gonna lie. It's a bit clunky. Weirdly, I found it worked better on my iPad than my W11 Laptop. Some docs have more interactive content including sequence videos and they're slow to load. But there are some docs that I cannot get to load at all. There's a fair bit going on in the background to render the content to the screen. Lynn Calder talked about the system limitations in the most recent podcast with Stu and Krabby.

I honestly think we'll be better off rolling our own version of a field manual and dip into the live manuals infrequently as required.

This is because the content download behind the scenes times out because of the limited international bandwidth to Aus - the only way I could get it to work was by using a VPN connection to the Netherlands. See my post a couple of pages back for details. To be clear, I'm located in Sydney, but the profile flag is apparently set by IP address
