I have no idea what I'm doing :?

Hello,
First time user of DS and I'm also using Adventure Creator. I thought DS would be a useful tool to use to improve the look and UX. But, I'll be honest, I'm a complete noob, no scripting experience and finding this incredibly difficult to fathom. It took me a long long long time to get to grips with AC so I'm hoping for some newbie help to get started. I've tried following the manual and tutorials but I just can't get my head around it.
It would be really great for some tips on how to add bubble like conversations, where the speech appears over each player and NPC. I really like the look of the 'Mobile Standard Dialogue UI' but rather than the text appearing at the top for the NPC and the response at the bottom of the screen I'd like it above their heads, smaller size so the 'bubble' adjusts it's size to the length of the sentence.
I really have no idea how to even start. I've set up the dialogue manager, added actor scripts to my Player and NPC and can't figure out what to do. Could you possibly give me a step by step (bullet point) guide on what I need to do please? I'm so sorry, this is scrambling my brain. I'm sure once I've got that kick start I'll be able to get cracking.
Thank you in advance
