Description Regina Henschel 2018-10-01 18:20:21 UTC 
Currently the help uses the default browser of the operating system. That is problematic for me. My default browser is "Seamonkey" (similar to Firefox but with integrated email client). Seamonkey cannot display the new CSS feature "grid". So all texts are one below the other instead of having the index left from the text.
Chrome can display it, but I do not want to make Chrome my default browser.

Other reasons for using different browsers for online and for showing local documents might be using different security settings and plugins.

The only option at this moment is to copy the address from the actual web browser and paste it into the prefered web browser.
