I recently came across a YouTube video "5.9 Loading an extended Reference Book for SMath Studio",
created by gUrrozEN. This showed how to load a more detailed handbook for Smath which looked as though it would be quite useful.

Unfortunately the procedure doesn't work as clicking on 'Extensions' 'Registered Extensions' does not lead to a section called 'Books' at the end. This section would have contained a link to the handbook. I guess Smath has changed a few things in the three years since the video was published.

Is this content still available? From where can I download these files?

TIA

Jon

Hi,
You can access to this interactive handbook via Tools-Plugins-Interactive Books
IMPORTANT
Check that the plugin Manager is pointing to "Online Gallery" not "Local Storage" as in my case, for that only click on that button

Thanks Oscar, but I think that this takes me to the handbook I already have - I get the message 'No updates found'.

The one referred to in the Youtube video is much larger (~500 files?).

You can fetch the handbook files from the SVN server

Yet it is strange that you can't access it via extension manager. See section 6.4 in the attached manual.

Hello.

I think you checked "Interactive books" section instead of the "Handbooks" in the Extensions Manager.

But you can also download these documents with the following link: https://smath.com/en-US/licensing/api/Extensions?type=Handbook

Best regards.

The Interactive Handbook that is mentioned in the video, (and also I mention in my post), has 547 files.
