2.1 Using the Help system
2.1.1 Dynamic On-line Help
Altium Designer includes a dedicated panel for dynamically displaying context sensitive help as
you work. The panel, called the Knowledge Center panel in Figure 1 has two sections. The
upper section displays help about the current menu entry, toolbar button, selected object, panel,
and so on. The lower section is the library navigation area. Here you can browse through the
documentation tree to open PDF-based articles, application notes, tutorials and other references.
The help text loads automatically into the upper region of the Knowledge Center panel if the
Autoupdate button
is enabled, indicated by the outline around the button. By enabling the
Autoupdate feature of the help system, the upper section of the Knowledge Center panel will
update to display content sensitive help while you work. If it is not enabled you can force the
context to load by pressing F1.
Figure 1. The Knowledge Center panel is used to access the Documentation Library.

2.1.2 Searching the Documentation Library
Enter a search string in the field at the bottom of the panel and click Search Wiki to search the
Wiki (http://wiki.altium.com) by default. This opens a web browser window in the software to view
the search results. To search via the PDF based documentation in the documentation library
click on the drop down arrow on the search button and select Search Local Documents. Note
that the scope or this searching is controlled by your current location in the library, open a
specific sub-folder to restrict searching to that topic area, return to the top of the library to search
the entire library. Figure 1 shows navigating to the Design capture, schematic editing section.
2.1.3 Using F1
The Altium Designer environment includes extensive F1 help support. Virtually every aspect of
the interface has F1 help support, for example:
• Press F1 while hovering the mouse cursor over a menu entry, toolbar button or dialog, to
directly open the help topic about that command/dialog.
• Press F1 while hovering the mouse cursor over a panel to obtain detailed help specific to
that panel.
• Press F1 in the Editor environment for help on that editor. If there is a design object under
the cursor then you will be presented with help on that object.
2.1.4 What's This Help
Use the dialog What's This Help ? to gain detailed information about each of the individual
options available in a dialog.

2.2 Using the Altium website
The Altium website (www.altium.com)includes extensive information about Altium’s products
and services, including access to technical information and Service Packs. It is good practice to
regularly visit the website to keep in touch with the latest information.
• Click on the Community section at the top the Home Page to access a variety of customer
resources.
• The SUPPORTcenter and Learning Guides are two of the sections available in the
Support sub-page. Learning guides, such as tutorials, articles and white papers, are in PDF
format.
• The Altium Technical Forums can be joined by choosing the Forums option in the
Community menu at the top of the Home Page. The Altium Designer forum is very popular
amongst both Altium product users and Altium staff, as a meeting place where they can
exchange advice and information.
• The DEMOcenter found on the home page to the left side is a useful tool for viewing short
videos of new features or selective how-to’s in Altium Designer. Whenever a new release
comes out with its usual array of new features, videos are created to help customers better
utilize these new features in the product.
• The TRAININGcenter is another useful resource available in the Community section.
These videos go into a lot more depth than the DEMOcenter movies. Current training
material includes Project Management, layout, route and fill to Enterprise Integration videos.
2.2.1 SUPPORTcenter
The SUPPORTcenter http://www.altium.com/supportcenter/ is one of the ways users can
access high-quality product support and access to the latest product updates service packs.
• Secure log in with username (email address) and password.
