Read the answer

The answer comes back in people’s own words. Under it, a fold shows the brains it drew on, and you can talk to any of them. A how-to question gets a plain answer and a Go to row under it that takes you to the right spot. When the answer has several tips, like “how do I replay the tour?”, you get one Show me around row instead, and it walks you through them.

Good to know

  • Your chat is private. People you tag never see your question or who asked.
  • Ask keeps your goals too. Ask for something to watch for and ASX posts updates in this chat; see Goals.
  • The Guide card tucks into chips once you have a chat. Close it with the X; Guide brings it back.
