    - If it is created for a workflow, it should explain all the input parameters present in the described object.
    - If it is created for an example, it should guide the user on correctly modeling the project.

  • If a page needs to have a screenshot added and there is no need for any edits, the screenshot can be directly added to the page. However, if there is a need to edit the screenshot, it should be edited by going to the provided link and then added to the page.

Example Document Formatting Guidelines

The rules written below should be followed sequentially when creating the document.

  1. First, it should be specified where the user needs to navigate to in the data spreadsheet on OpenBrIM.

  2. To enable the user to check what the object they are defining in the data spreadsheet or its input parameters are, a link to the instructional page should be added.

  3. The document with the provided link should be added using the "expand" command.

  4. To guide the user during modeling, numbered tables should be used.

  5. If the description in the table contains a command for the user, an OpenBrIM emoji should be placed at the beginning of the sentence.

  6. The instructions in the table should be written step by step to help the user create the model accurately. It should be clearly indicated which cell to click on and what value to enter for each parameter.

  7. A screenshot related to the instruction in the table should be placed right next to that instruction.

  8. In cases where additional explanation is needed for the user, Quick Tip should be used.

  9. The Quick Tip text should have a general narrative that covers all the projects to be created.

  10. The cell background where the Quick Tip text is placed should be yellow.

  11. In the table instructions, any statement that needs to be emphasized should be written in bold. For example: parameter name, parameter value, etc.

  • No labels
