[quote="Juliana Peng"]but it seems only effective when adding the new entry. All the attributes will show in logbook. Is there a way to hide some of the
attributes? It would be good to let each user to choose what to see what not to see, create their own view. Can you put it on your to-do list or wishlist?[/quote]

[quote="Juliana Peng"]I may have all the attributes in logbook to keep a full record of all the machine. But for daily use, some of the attibutes we are
not using so often. Too many attributes will make the window so big that can not be hold in one screen which is the reason why I want to hide some of them.
Of course the hidden attributes have data, but those data are rarely used so we'd rather hide them.

[quote="Juliana Peng"]But is there a way to control to hide or view the attributes? so that we don't need to change the elog.conf file each time.
For example, add a menu "expend" in "Find menu commands", we can click to view all the attributes or just view the attributes defined in "List Display"

In that case I would suggest two separate logbooks, for for SunOS and one for others. This way you can manage two separate sets of attributes.[/quote]

I understood you correctly. What I was trying to say is that what you currently request possible with the current version and will not be implemented soon.
But you can partly obtain what you want by having two logbooks. Make one logbook which has fewer attributes, and which will receive all SunOS entries. |

New and reply pages don't use Page Title, posted by Chris Green on Tue Jul 26 17:41:10 2005

Is this intentional, or can it be changed? I'd like every page associated with a particular logbook to use that logbook's page title as at least part of

[quote="Emiliano Gabrielli"]IMHO the solution may be in allowing html code only in the cfg, not in the value of the field..
i.e., elog has to first allow html in the cfg attribute and then replace every $attribute with their values... this values as to be translated in html
entities in order to solve the problem

[quote="Stefan Ritt"] I added an escape character. If you write <b> or \[b], then it gets interpreted. If you write \<b> or \\[b] with the "\" in front
of the tag, it does not get interpreted, thus the '\' works like an escape character. I edited your old entry with the <img> in the subject, and as you
see it is now not interpreted.
