Depending on how complex it is, you could add a popup window with tabs where each tab covers a topic / aspect about the application or just link out to a PDF document where you describe things in as much detail as you'd like.

For our site, I added an embed widget within a widget controller in the footer. I maintain documentation in a separate HTML page.

Hello again @Brian_McLeer 

How did you program:

  • the "Select Map View" drop down box?   Are you using Pages or differnt EB applications?
  • the "Save Instance" button

Thank you for the feedback @JoseSanchez 

1. This is a custom widget, but has specific URLs hardcoded so I have not posted it to the custom widget group. It links to separate EB applications. If you would like a copy of the widget, please send me a direct message.

2. The save instance widget was created by @SvenJensen at this post.

I will also plug that there is a blog that has a library of custom widgets.
