Hi everybody
I have a different solution to access data like this ! ;-)

In System/Preferences/Main Menu

1st create a new menu item: Documentations
2nd create a new item like attached !!

Now in top panel's Application go to Documentations and start your guide
easiest !!! ;-D

Good luck and cheers,
