Thanks for pointing to that bug report.
I thought I remembered that this was discussed somewhere else before. But I couldn't find where.

Marking as duplicate of bug #44529 and closing report.

That is a more general issue.

The function `sgrid` is from the "control" package. Currently, the documentation browser in the GUI only contains the help for functions from core Octave.

I'm not sure if it is possible to load the documentation from packages "on the fly" into the documentation browser.

>help sgrid

does work.
But from the documentation panel, tab "index des fonctions", this function is not listed, while "grid" is.

Maybe it is normal but for a new user as I am, it is strange.

A small one.
