PanGazer has extensive documentation (you are probably reading it now).  In addition, PanGazer now also checks for updates and indicates if a newer version is available. 

Help menu

The Help menu provides access to PanGazer documentation (locally or on the PanGazer website).  It also indicates if a newer version is downloadable, and provides information about the version you are using.  The menu options are: 

Help pages (local) – this opens your default browser to view the PanGazer documentation included in your installation.  These pages are ‘static HTML’, identical to the pages on the PanGazer website (if you are using the same version).  Press F1 to view these directly. 
(Note: if the help pages shown are unformatted plain-text markup, please google ‘change association for .html’ to learn how to change this so the .html help files are opened in your browser.)

Website home and help – takes you to the PanGazer web (internet) home page. 

Download PanGazer 3.15 – takes you to the website download page; PanGazer has detected that a new update is available; the number shown (e.g., 3.15) is the latest version available;

(or)

Download from website – takes you to the website download page anyway (e.g., to check recent change descriptions). 

About PanGazer 3.12 [64-bit] – indicates the version of PanGazer you are using (e.g., 3.12), and whether it is the 32-bit or 64-bit version. 

Updates

At any time you can check whether a new update is available using the Help menu; the Download option will show a version number if a new update is available.  You can also always click the Download option to visit the PanGazer download page (e.g., to view recent changes). 

PanGazer automatically checks whether a new update is available when it is started for the first time each day.  When a new update is available it displays an ‘Alert status’ at the top-left of the display window for seven seconds.  This is again shown for two more days (of using PanGazer) and is then not shown again until a newer version is released.  (You can always check if a new version is available by viewing the Help menu – see above). 

(This is a new feature and may need some tuning .. feedback is welcome in the PanGazer Support & Discussion group »!)
