I have "Summary lines = 1" in the config file. The first line visualized in the summary list, in the Text column, is truncated. I'm using the default style.

Which is the way to set the number of character displayed?

I added a new parameter

Summary line length = x

for you. This is included in SVN revision 2262 (if you can compile it yourself) and will be contained in the next release.

I have already tested your patch backporting the change to 2.7.7.1. It works like a charm.

Thank you very much!

Is there a way to configure ELOG to default to the Status column in descending order rather than the Date in descending order?

Thanks

Sort attributes = Status

... as written in the manual. 

Thanks for the quick response. This works. I noticed that the Dates aren't descending, is there a way to have the dates descending while sorting Status?

Thanks again!

For this you need

Sort attributes = Status, Date

which however only works from version 2.7.8 on. 

Hi Stefan,

I attached a 12 page (22kB) pdf file - no images - to an entry, but elog only converted the first 8 pages to
images (.png).  This is reproducable, i.e. a different small multipage pdf file produced the same number of images.

The size of the pdf file does not seem to be a problem, a single page pdf file with a lot of images in it
attached as expected.

Is this correct, or a defined limitation?
