We need to write up an initial tutorial for using Avogadro for some standard sorts of tasks. This should walk a new user through drawing molecules, navigating, using the bond manipulation tool, etc.

I'd also like to make sure that this tutorial explains how to use Avogadro with one-button Mac mice or trackpads.

    Although I agree with you that more documentation, and simpler more accessible forms is also necessary, do these not accomplish what you would like? (http://avogadro.openmolecules.net/wiki/Tutorials) I am still looking on how to have the ease of mouse access that I do with linux in this program in windows, I found the rest of it incredibly straight forward easier in most cases than even using a model kit. I think that anyone who stumbles across this and who was willing to find out how other molecular editors work and how to use them, this one needs relatively little documentation at this point. Let me know what you think.

    I agree with Imploration and I'm closing this bug. We simply need to add more tutorials to the wiki.

    @imploration -- if you're having troubles with Windows mouse usage, please file a bug and tell us what is happening. Thanks!
