@{m_question "Why don't work online Help (Menu-/Gadget-Help) if HTDS is installed ?"}
@{m_answer}
The problem is, that all programs which provides online help uses the
@{m_file amigaguide.library}. Upto version V40.19 of the @{m_file hypertext.datatype}
this datatype don't work with the @{m_file amigaguide.library} correctly. From
V40.20 of the @{m_file hypertext.datatype} this is fixed. Because of the way the
@{m_file amigaguide.library} opens a document, the first page may be empty.

@node EmbeddedPics "Embedded pictures"

@{m_question "Why aren't embedded pictures displayed?"}
@{m_answer}
If you use a graphic card with a emulation software like CyberGraphics or Picasso96
just get the newest picture.datatype for the appropriate package. The newest versions
of these picture.datatype's support the DTM_DRAW method correctly at least the
following :

@{code}
CyberGraphics : picture.datatype 43.757
Picasso96     : picture.datatype 43.26

@{body}
If you use the original picture.datatype you have to install my picdtpatch
utility, which adds the DTM_DRAW method to the original datatype. If you use my
picdtpatch utility make sure that it is started before any program which might
use the picture.datatype. Usally a place between the AddDatatypes and IPrefs is
a good place in the @{"Startup-Sequence" link "S:Startup-Sequence"}.

@node Navigation "Navigation buttons"
@{m_question "Why do not work the navigation buttons ?"}
@{m_answer}
The @{m_file hypertext.datatype} uses ARexx commands to communicate between
the navigation button bar and the hypertext document. Therefore it is required
that ARexx is running. So make sure that the RexxMast program is started in your
@{"Startup-Sequence" link "S:Startup-Sequence"} or @{"User-Startup" link "S:User-Startup"}
script.
