TWL Manual Viewer

Previewing an E-Manual that has been created for a Nintendo DSiWare title will display it using TWL Manual Viewer.

Once in the Viewer, the controls on the lower screen allow you to display the various pages of the manual.

Note: The manual pages are automatically assigned to the Viewer buttons in order of filename.

If you want to rearrange the order of pages, you must change the filenames so they are ordered in the way you want.

TWL Manual Viewer Screen

When you preview, the Manual Viewer screen is displayed on the target screen.

The design of the Contents screen is fixed, but you can use the Editor to change the button text for the page titles and sections.
