  <title>Basic features</title>

  <p>"Drawing" is a basic drawing application for the GNOME desktop, which can
  edit or create pictures (PNG, JPEG or BMP).</p>

  <gui style="button">Open</gui> button, the <gui style="button">Save</gui>
  button, and the main menu.</p>

  <section>
    <title>The "Open" button</title>

    <p>Open a picture file from your documents.</p>
    <p>If the window size is too small to display its button, the
    <gui style="button">Open</gui> button is available in the primary menu.</p>
  </section>

  <section>
    <title>The "New Image" menu</title>

    available:</p>
    <list>
      <item>
        <p>Create a new blank image, in a new tab. Such an new image can use the

        you can set custom values.</p>
      </item>
      <item>

    window.</p>
