Visuals are powerful and can engage an audience in ways text alone can't. In software user assistance, screenshots have been an easy go-to for visuals. But with that power comes great responsibility. In the face of localization, accessibility, and continuous deployment, screenshots may carry underestimated overhead that outweighs their contribution to the conversation with the user. Instead, consider other visuals illustrations, infographics, simplified UI abstract representations that may better support your message, contribute more to the conversation, and avoid some of the extra overhead.

User assistance indicates a failed design is a sentiment we sometimes hear from designers, UX professionals, and even other technical communicators. However, Help doesnt have to be a four-letter word. In this talk, well discuss the role UA plays in the overall user experience (spoilers: it plays a big one) and how, likewise, a focus on the user experience of Help can lead to innovative and engaging content. Well also take a hard look at our users, how they interact with content, considerations to keep in mind to ensure you engage users and answer their real questions, and whether the traditional tri-pane UX of Help still meets their needs and expectations. ]]>
