These pages are in the form of wiki. It uses MediaWiki, the same engine that powers Wikipedia. Like Wikipedia, any user can improve and add pages for the benefit of others -- in this case the growing community of Analytica users.
Anyone can add a comment or request at the bottom of each page in the Comment section (including this page!)
If you have a paid Analytica license with current support, you can get a wiki account to edit any content here. You can set up an account from inside Analytica: Start up Analytica, and from the Help menu, select Wiki login info.... If that doesn't work, email support@lumina.com to set up an account.
To edit a page, open the This page pulldown menu at the top of the page, and select Edit or Edit source:
- Edit opens the whole page using the Visual Editor, which is (almost) WYSYWIG (What You See Is What You Get). Use the controls in the toolbar at the top to format text, including bold, italic, heading styles, lists, and so on. You can also insert links and screenshots. All this without needing to learn the wiki markup language.
- Edit source opens the page (or a section if you click Edit next to a heading) showing its underlying wiki markup. This the same markup language used in Wikipedia to specify links, lists, styles, and so on. This editor also offers a toolbar at the top for common styles and formats. For details, see Help on mediawiki markup language.
