The "Quick Filter" facility only works for attributes which are avaiable as
an "Options <attribute> = ..." list. So if you have a "free" attribute like
the author, the systen would have to scan the whole logbook to find all
possible authors, which would result in some unacceptable performance
degradation. Nevertheless, in systems with a limited number of authors one
can add the "options author = ..." statement to get the selection box. The
behaviour is independent of the "Self-Register" setting. |
