Research direction

Start by tracing the Help menu's cheatsheet link and how the cheatsheet page reads its version query parameter. Check the current and historical cheatsheet URLs, then verify that a supplied version selects the matching document while an unknown or missing version has defined behavior.

Written by the indexing model from the issue text.

Description

The cheatsheet link in "Help" menu opens the link with a "version" parameter (e.g. https://openscad.org/cheatsheet/index.html?version=2019.05), however this parameter is ignored, and the latest version of the document is always shown.

This can create some confusion. I also believe it would be beneficial to keep the historic versions of the cheatsheet accessible.
