To all new or recent readers:
The suggestions that @rokytnji: has provided are good and solid.
We are, generally speaking, a good and helpful community.
Just the same, many of us have many activities, just as you do.
Sometimes we know the answers to questions, but perhaps almost as often,
we have to hunt down the answers too.
The suggestions that Roki offered therefore, while not DIRECTLY giving
you any SPECIFIC answers to your questions, are actually excellent suggestions:
Take the time to read, study, search, experiment, and try things out.
If you continually and persistently try, usually you will find many answers
yourself, and you will have learned a lot.
There are times when you are tired, frustrated, unsure, etc. Most of us
“get that” too. We understand, and we may be able to help. But if you come
to the forum, explain what you are attempting to do, what you have tried,
what the “unexpected” results of your efforts were, and what the “expected”
results are, more than likely someone will be able to help, or at least suggest
a few resources you can search to find a working solution.
So there are TWO responses in this forum from “old” veterans, who learned the very
same way, we read, we studied, we tried things out, made mistakes, maybe even had
to rebuild a system 2, 3, 4 or more times. But then we had success. Sometimes we
asked a few questions, but mostly we shared the results of work that came from trial
and error, and that was also based on things we tried after examining the possibilities,
or sometimes just to break it and see what would happen and what we could learn from it.
Hope this very general, but experienced expression will ultimately help many people
become the future experts of this forum and the software that we use. Best wishes!
