Very simple and short YouTube-Videos #149

Closed tutebatti closed 2 years ago

tutebatti commented 2 years ago

With the feedback by the visitor reported in #148 etc., the idea came up to make very short YouTube-Videos that do not cover a greater and complex research task as a whole, but answer small questions like: How do I look for a specific place?

As long as some users are overwhelmed by the documentation (which is systematic and not "problem-oriented") this might be a good solution.

@mfranke93 Is there a difference regarding terminology between the views and the areas/windows/panes in the visualization?

For example, in the following screenshot, one can see one view in each, well, what exactly? Subwindow?

I think we called them "panes" in the other documentation.

The window is the browser window. I think it would be confusing to call anything else a window. "Subwindow" might work, or not. To stay consistent with the other docs: The visualization has multiple panes. Most panes contain a view, but the settings pane just contains some text and controls.

Yes, I worry, too, about consistency with the docs. On the other hand: the videos should be really low-threshold, because they are meant for users who are easily scared away by lots of expressions they do not know... I'll get some more feedback for the term subwindow.

I'm on the right track making these videos. There should be no need for this thread. Will close and reopen if necessary.
