Red line discussion

was a bug, talk removed...

new doc

looks fine mostly...

  • the screenshots seem to be old
  • and the text should be streamlined with the newer GUI as well
  • the discussion part about the red line bug should be removed
  • we should think about renaming it to something like "your first animation - in 60 seconds" or so...
