[H6] map editor tutorial?

Is there some sort of help file or tutorial that explains how to use the map editor for HOMM VI?  I have poked around with the various menus and figured out a few things, but am not at all comfortable.

Mainly, I want to use the map editor to look at maps that I have downloaded.  I have found a button that lets me move around, but would like to get the zoom level to look at a much larger view than it does, and would like to adjust the cameral angle to being more overhead (i.e. vertical).

I've searched through the threads, the manuals and the files -- but do not see how to do what I want to do.   There is a button labeled "help" on the editor, but it does nothing.

dale, in your heroes folder there is a file called editor but with an icon that resembles a question mark. Click on it - this is the help menu.

dale,
you can download the official "Heroes6_Editor_Quickstart_Guide" here.

But the content is very poor.

I will write a short tutorial to explain how to navigate in the map (in this thread ).

I cannot find such a file.  The only editor file is editor.exe -- no editor.chm or other help file extension.   Do you know of a place where I can download that file?

I found the quick start guide you mentioned above -- it helped a lot.  Thanks for that reference.
