Re: Append option for elog.exe |

Would it be possible to add an 'append' option to the elog.exe client program? I would like to be able to write a simple script for adding images into a logbook - i.e. right-click in Windows and click 'add to log', or click a button in LabVIEW or Matlab and have an image immediately added to the last log entry. There would also have to be an option to either return a list of entry IDs, or just append to the last entry. Is this possible/likely?

Unfortunately it is not simple under Windows to extend the right-click functionality. What I do is to use a snapshot program (like HoverSnap). Triggered with a definable hot key, it grabs a region of the screen and puts it into a GIF file. Then you can attach it to an elog. I agree it takes a couple of clicks, but it's still a quick thing. |
