Can't see figures (pictures) in Cakewalk Documentation

[LNovik@aol.com]

When I go to one of the Cakewalk Documentations to look up something like, "Audio Snap," I can't download the accompanying figures (illustrations) on my Dell Pc. Even if I double click on the little green'ish icon at the upper fight corner, nothing comes up. I assume I need to do something different in my settings, but I can't figure out what to change.

Thanks. I'll copy below what I see when I look at a page of the documentation:

Remove the  “s”  from the https in the URL.

Or, go to preferences->file-advance and click use local documentation. Then it will bring up the pdf and not the web site.

That has never worked for me. Is there a specific location the reference guide PDF has to be in for that to work?

I have installed “Local Help” using the Cakewalk Product Centre (under the Cakewalk Sonar addons).

On my PC, hitting F1 opens the locally installed Windows help file contextually.

The Windows help file also opens from the Sonar help menu.

I've installed it from the Product Center multiple times in the past and it has never worked for me. This time I opened the Installer Location and ran the installer manually. Now it works.

Same issue here, since a couple of weeks pictures no longer show up (using Firefox on Windows 11)

It's been this way for years that you have to set browser security to allow showing insecure content on secure sites; I'm not sure what the path is to that setting in Firefox.
