This is part of a bigger rewrite/org of the interface docs.

Sometimes users accidentally hide bones, events, etc. in the editor. This adds tips on the relevant page for each.

  • Added a “Show Final Playback” toggle GIF to the toolbar documentation.
  • Cleaned up a formatting artifact in the joysticks doc paragraph.
