If you run into problems
In case you have questions, either ask around on our friendly Community Forum – no matter if Shortcuts rookie or pro, you're welcome there, we don't bite! You can also contact me, Carlo (the app's indie developer), by contact form or by email.
If you have a technical issue and opt for the latter, just can also use the Feedback mail button in the app.
Visual markers throughout the documentation
Links to actions, objects, and parameters are visually marked with a colored tag. This way, you can easily spot them in the text and know what you're looking at. For example, Create Window is a link to an action, Browser Tab is a link to an object, and Target window links to a parameter on the same docs page.
Parameter options which can be selected from a predefined list are underlaid with "a quiet background color".
