User guide instructions has a lot of click instructions although it is meant for typists #420

Although the application is dedicated to typists, the user guide emphasizes a lot on having to click the command prompt to enter their next command.

While the command prompt should be focused most of the time in a real scenario, the inclusion of having to click as part of the usage would imply that the command input box may be out of focus and hence not suitable for typists as there is a need for multiple mouse inputs? Perhaps the detail can be omitted if it is unnecessary.

Team's Response

As this app is meant for all logistics managers, we would like to make the UG as user-friendly as possible. Our tutorials are designed for absolute beginners. If we did not mention the requirement to click the command box, the user might not understand how to enter a command. Furthermore, the mention of clicking is only within the tutorials section, and not mentioned at all in the features section, as the tutorials are only for new users. Once users have gotten used to the app, they would no longer need very specific instructions to click the command box. Therefore, these instructions are actually useful for new users, and we would not consider the suggestion to remove all of these. Hence response.Rejected.
