Thansk to all who stayed on topic and responded, both here and privately.
Interesting difference of viewpoints, all certainly valid, but ultimately
most people indicated they use this construction:
#. ACTION. [return of some kind, some hard, some soft]
[indent]RESULT.
Sometimes the result is a screenshot, sometimes text. I tend to avoid
placing every screen in a document, prefering to follow Horton
(Illustrating Computer Documentation 1991) and inserting only significant
screenshots.
Grazie, vielen Dank, dank u well, spasibo, gracias, merci....
