Ahh, now I see what you mean. Well, first you can configure the amount of things to be shown in the threaded display
already via "Thread display". So maybe you can strip down things to have not too long entries. Second, to get to the
attachment you click on the entry, then click on the attachment. So to save you one click, it would cost me a few hours
of work (literally during the weekend). So I'm not very convinced Wink


In my version of firefox, the thread display usually word-wraps once I get to the emty-enty entry, so the paperclip icon being at the
end of the thread display is not a disaster. And let's be grateful that it does not pop up and say "you appear to be reporting
a bug in elog..." Wink

Thanks for all of the contributions - all I meant in my original suggestion was that I'd like to be able to define which column(s) should hold the Attachments paperclip in the Full and Summary List Views, which I use all the time, to reduce the need to scroll horizontally on every page. This would be similar to being able to specify where the Edit control appears by specifying the Edit attribute in the "List Display" list.
... and I really didn't want to ruin another of Stefan's weekends or confuse anybody!

Ok, now I got it. I will put that request on the wish list. For the moment, you can restrict the number of attributes shown in the list view with "List display = ...". This way you can maybe display less so that your table gets narrower and you save some scrolling.

Hello.

Please look at the entry 66525 of this forum (just 5 thread before this one):

 ->  chain.crt, posted by Gerhard Schneider on Thu Sep 3 21:55:52 2009         (66525)
  |->    Re: chain.crt, posted by Stefan Ritt on Fri Sep 4 08:33:16 2009       (66526)
  |->    Re: chain.crt, posted by Gerhard Schneider on Wed Oct 7 07:56:52 2009 (66556)

When you collapse the thread, it is collapsed to the 66526 instead of the 66556 (more recent)

  +      Re: chain.crt, posted by Stefan Ritt on Fri Sep 4 08:33:16 2009  

I guess it is because both 66526 and 66556 replies to the first entry. 
I have the same problem with Elog v2.7.7-2246 and Windows. 

In general, it seems to work well only if you always reply to the last entry of a thread.

  Thank you.


b.t.w. : is there any tip to always force reply to the last entry of a thread?

As the person who suggested this concept, I have to admit I've yet to think of a good way around this issue. 
Preventing "branching" is all very well, but sometimes it is relivent to have a branch (although I usually try to
avoid them).  Unless elog scans every possible branch to find where the latest entry, I cannot think of a
foolproof, practical scheme.

Hi Stefan,

After 21.Oct, all the emails sent out by this discussion form now are addressed to

ELOG@ananke.jtan.com
the name of the server my mails are sent to.

Before that the emails were addressed to 

ELOG@emix.psi.ch

Obviouisly my real email address is there, in the headers (as it would appear for a BCC)

The only consequence for me was these emails turned up in the wrong mailbox, but perhaps it has wider implications?

Indeed on Oct. 21st the SMPT server sending out emails from this forum has been changed. I checked my own mails coming 
from the forum, but I could not find any hint of what you describe above. The "From:" header contains "noreply@psi.ch" 
and the "To:" header is my email address. The "Received:" header contains our SMTP server, but you should not that field 
for filtering your email.

I fixed that in revision 2269. So now elog scans a complete branch and searches for the last entry in the branch. 
You can check again the branch above on the forum, should work now.
