Install Guide, install along side Windows?

Hi,

I see a section for dual-boot removing Fedora on Windows computers. I do not see a section at all for how to install Fedora on a system that contains Windows already. Is anyone working on this? Currently, I find it distinctly non-obvious how to proceed for a new user to newui.

The earlier option to click on an existing Windows partition and shrink it, has been removed from 'guided' autopartitioning because the shrink option left Windows with only 1GB of free space, essentially rendering it not usable.

So now, Windows users installing Fedora along side Windows, must use Manual Partitioning. Windows appears under +Unknown so first they have to find the partition, click it, and then go to the right side and change its capacity to shrink it and make room for Fedora. Each of those steps I think require increasing quantities of imagination to guess the next step to make this work. But a short amount of documentation, a 1/2 page, would go a long way to making this a lot easier for people.
