  68249   Thu Feb 4 14:21:19 2016 Cool Francois CloutierFrancois@fcmail.caQuestionWindowsV3.1.1-0767eb0Applying cell style or some sort of subst in list view only
Good day,

I have an attribute that is 25 chars. it can be empty until someone edit it to fill the information.
The default view for that logbook is List. 

Is it possible to display that attribute in list view but not the entire 25 chars ?
What I mean is that if the field is empty, show it as empty but if it has some information, show something like "X" in List view.

I tried playing with Styles and Cell Styles but I couldn't figure it out...
Cell Style seams to require specific values "" to apply the style properties. I can't figure how to apply cell style "if field is not empty" :)

Thanks for your help :)

Hi !

I do have an setup were I would like to rename the menu command but keeping their fonction. Namely, I would like to rename the "copy to" button to "Duplicate" since thats the option I would like to put in place ( Copy to = Same logbook only).

I tried to do so with css but it is not possible since the button doesn't have a specific id... Would you have another solution ? 

Thanks for your help !

Somehow, I've missed to see that option :)

Thanks :)

Hm, maybe my question is silly, but why don't you just use the "Duplicate" command instead of renaming and misusing "Copy to"??

Here is the relevant excerpt from the documentation (https://midas.psi.ch/elog/config.html#general):

Menu commands = <list>
This option specifies the menu commands displayed on top of a single logbook page. For certain installations, it can be useful to disable some commands. Following commands are possible:

  • New - Enter new logbook entry
  • Edit - Edit current logbook entry
  • Delete - Delete current logbook entry
  • Reply - Submit a reply to current entry
  • Duplicate - Duplicate the current entry with the possibility to change some values
  • [...]
  • Copy to - Copy entry to other logbook
  • [...]

The commands are always in English, independent of the language = ... setting, and are automatically translated into the specified language.
If this option is not present, following default is used:

Menu commands = List, New, Edit, Delete, Reply, Duplicate, Find, Config, Help

 Good day,

 

I was wondering (and I searched for :) ) a way to directly edit an entry while in summary view instead of having to first click on the entry then click on Edit...

I mean, in summary view, every row entry is clickable to access the entry itself (except email witch open email client), so instead to open it, can it be edited directly ?

Is it possible ?

 Is it possible to change the "yellow" background color when running a search ? (I looked in the css, there is nothing...) 

Couldn't find any syntax for elogd.cfg

Thanks for your help :)

 Good day,

I have 2 logbooks. The main one and the one for the archived entries.

I can make a "move to" command in the main one witch will bring the drop down for the archive. (working perfect).

I was wondering if it is possible to make a "custom" move to in witch I can directly specify the destination logbook, hide the drop down and rename the button.

The main objective is to make a button called "Archive" witch the users only have to press to move the selected entries.<

I know I can make some custom command in list view ie :<a href="?xxx=xxx1|xxx2">zzz</a> so I was wondering if the same is possible and if so, can you guide me on the syntax ?

 

Thanks for your help :)

There are no specific classes for the search dialog, but you can play with the classes "form2", "attribname" and "attribvalue". These classes are used in several places, so all will change in the same way, but maybe that's what you like. 

 Understand.. So when a search/sort is done, the searched item come up with a yellow background... 

The thing is, if you set a "Cell Style XXX= background-color: ZZZ" it become useless since it is replace with the yellow background.

I tried to play with the css but I couldnt figure it out... So you say I cant do anything about it ? I'm just wondering where this yellow color comes from :)

  68873   Fri Dec 14 15:46:14 2018 Question Frank Baptistacaffeinejazz@gmail.comQuestionWindows3.1.2Logbook architecture and availability

I have a setting which makes ELOG a perfect solution, but there's a situation that I'm struggling to get my head around. We have 3 separate laboratories, each one containing a number of temperature chambers, which run almost constantly over a number of shifts. Each temperature chamber has it's own logbook (laptop). So far, pretty simple.
My dilemma is, our network goes down for maintenance/updates (more often than I'd like), but our operation cannot afford to stop during network interruptions.
With that said, I thought about whether I could run a "local" logbook on each laptop/chamber, and somehow mirror the local logbook to the main ELOG server.
Perhaps I'm over-thinking this...do you have any recommendations?
