This is a limitation of the FCKEditor used inside ELOG, and actually of the whole browser concept under Windows. 
There are some extensions to Firefox which let your paste an image as an attachment, but none for doing this right 
into the text body. For some discussion about this have a look at

for example.

Hmmm.  Well, does that mean that it is easier under Linux?  I have to confess I couldn't figure that out either.  But
I'd be delighted to have Yet Another Reason to tell the users that "it works under Linux, maybe you should switch...."

I'm not sure, but I doubt that it would work under Linux. It's a general security issue: If your browser has free access to 
your clipboard, then what happens if you for example copy-and-paste a password in some application, then forget your password 
in the clipboard, then you surf to a malicious website, and a script on that site grabs your clipboard contents? This would 
be a severe security hole on ANY operating system.

Hi there,

In a linux installation straight out of the box, I can cut-and-paste text from the mailer program (a stand-alone one called
XCmail), from an xterm or similar into elog with no trouble.  I've not tried an image, I just attach them as I use plain encoding.
 Don't know how it would work if it were on a properly secure linux box.

Hello,

We would like to use more the quick filter command on attributes.

On the other hand, when we use it, the result does not displaying entries which are in answer of another attribute. Is there a command which allow that possibility like when we select display full entries in the search mode?

Thanks in advance

Xavier

 Sorry for my english. In fact, i found the answer by myself. But I ll explain to you.

in attachement 1, a small part of our ELOG. When I choose FBT in the quick filter "groupe incriminé". Elog respond that there is no entrie found (attachement 2)

But, with the find function, when i select display full entries and FBT in "groupe incriminé", Elog show the entrie ( attachement 3).

I found the answer. In fact, Elog respond no entrie when threaded is selected. I have to choose Full or summary for that working.

sorry

Xavier

Actually what you report is a bug. The filtering does not work in threaded display mode, only in summary and full. I fixed that bug in the current SVN version, so if you download and compile it, you can give it a try. The fix will be contained in the next official release.
