New documentation is hard to love

This issues with documentation are multifactorial and complex. But I have written a small utility program which helps dealing with one piece of the problem. It is a program that displays new and deprecated versions of commands. The example you mention “Integer.ToString” can be dealt with by supplying a filter in this program which will then list all the deprecated/new versions of the command that contain “tostring”. I include an example below showing the state of the program after the user has entered tostring

This program (XojoDeprecated) is free and available at

Anybody who is interested can download it and see if they might find it useful.
Once you have a handle on the complete names of commands, be they deprecated or new, it is often easier to deal with the documentation.

This is a Macintosh application.
