Existing users, 
I am constantly amazed at how products are released with no accompanying reference manual.
Followed the prompts, made a widget, didn't even have an "i" icon to go to the back of the widget.
It might be good, it might not, but there is no way to tell without a manual of some sort to describe what it can do.
Another folder of "Widget Creator" with a nonstandard folder icon is included, again with no explanation of what it is or what it does.
And the persistent nagging to pay made me give up on this thing before I had a chance to figure out how it worked.
Release a manual, dude. This is absurd.

Needs a manual - dj_mac
You might try choosing "Go to Developers Site" before you download software, can't figure it out, and give it a poor rating. Since you have no hesitation to slam the developer without looking for the documentation and tutorial online ... I would have to say, it is you who is lame sir.Saturday, November 19 2005 @ 01:19 PM PST

Nope dj mac, a new user shouldn't have to hunt down fundamental components like documentation by scouring websites and user forums. For advanced troubleshooting, okay, but not basic info needed for non-geeks to get started using the app.If the developer can't find the time to include such basic tools in the initial download, then he/she is doing a disservice to potential customers.

I don't think its cool to slam my program down for lack of a manuel you could politely suggest it like a normal person. Any way the next version has a manuel ready.Friday, November 25 2005 @ 12:54 PM PST

Sorry, I haven't had time to write a manual. The widgets should have the i button. Recently there has been a whole bunch of bugs due to a switch to universal binary. I am pretty ashamed that I forgot to test Wcode after I changed the format, I didn't realize it would do that. If you have any question in particular feel free to email me or visit the forum at wcode.iindigo3d.com/forums/.Bryan Goldstein
