Yup, the syntax diagrams are completely messed up. (I even checked back to RDi 9.6.)

I confess I seldom use the RDi help, referring instead to the manuals in PDF form, (which have been downloaded). I find it a little easier to navigate the PDFs - just a personal thing.

Folks:

Anyone else seeing bad formatting in some of the help content?

Specifically, I'm seeing missing spaces in the syntax for SQL statements.

For example: On the create index help...

Looks like all the syntax content in the SQL help is suffering from
the same thing.
