Prusa Slicer Manual? ... Tutorial?

Is there a manual for Prusa Slicer?  Is there a tutorial?  I've been using it for the three weeks I've had my MK3S, and it's pretty intuitive, but I often worry that I'm missing out on the coolest features.  🙂  I did skim through the 2.0 release blogpost, and I agree that Undo would be a sweet feature, but then I hold the world record for mistakes made!

I could really use a manual too.  I'm not finding a lot of helpful info on how to use Prusa Slicer.

Even stuff that seems like it should be very simple has me stumped.  E.g. how do I specify an extruder to use for the support material with my MMU?

If anyone can provide a link to a manual that would be great.  I've not been able to find it.

Thanks.

No - Prusa doesn't believe it needs a manual (apparently).

The Slic3r manual can help you learn some of the tricks since Prusa is copying Slic3r essentials.

I especially like this:

Manual is on its way, but the devs are still adding tons of new features, so it will take some time. As soon as some parts are published I will add them here.

Considering all the changes Team Prusa have made to Slic3r base recently, this was probably a prudent choice. A manual more than a few weeks old would be very out of date by now. Sounds like the next PrusaSlicer update is going to be a big one. I'm looking forward to it.

It's now 2020 and still no manual.   Seriously I keep hearing about all these cool things the slicer can do but have no idea how to do most of them.

I would also appreciate a manual for those of us who are starting, having more control of what we do. and not be all day with the typical test, trial and error .... hopefully successful, but without manual less.

Yeah, I shouldn't have to pay a 3rd party to get instructions for Prusa Slicer.  I mean, who releases software without a help file?  Seriously!

You ever going to follow through on this?  Honestly, releasing your work in progress is way better than just leaving us hanging.

The reason I'm looking at this thread is that I'm trying to learn how to use some of the new features. I know how to use support enforcers, but wasn't there also a way to enforce different infill settings?

Whatever you find to do with your hands, do with all your might!
