Certain characters contained in the 'Subject' will cause the text to split into multiple lines .

For example if  I enter "My Subject" in the 'Subject' field it is displayed as

My

Subject

If I enter "My_Subject" it is displayed as 

My_Subject

Is there any way to change this so no line breaks are created ?

There are two locations where 'Subject' is shown, the list display and the individual message display. I guess you mean the first one. 

In that case, you can modify the CSS styel sheet 'elog.css' and add following statement to the classes list2 and list2h:

.list2 {
   ...
   white-space: nowrap;
}  

.list2h {
   ...
   white-space: nowrap;
}  

Thanks for that bit of info . I had looked at that file but the answer was not obvious to me . Now I have to have an ELOG entry about , well , ELOG :}

HI,

Is there a way to export the ELOG entries to a file like Microsoft Word?
For ECSS-type documents for space missions, I have to report the data that we enter in the ELOG in a Manufacturing Report, foreseen for ECSS, in word format. It's possible to do it?
The data has to go into tables, inserted in the world file, called "as run procedure".
Is it possible to connect the elog to a report template so that it automatically generates the manufacturing report? Or link the tables placed in it so that they are automatically filled in?

Thank you so much
Manuela

You can just copy-and-paste an elog entry into Word. I tested it here wiht a simple table:

Did a copy-and-paste to Word, and got the thing below.

Best,

Thanks a lot Stefan,

I asked if it is possible, in general, to create a connection and automatically fill in the tables of a report, or export the data into excell tables to then be connected to the report, having in our case about 24 process tables to be filled in with data or validation, for each report. If the compilation is not automatic, after having compiled the elog in each phase of the processing, the manifacturing report will then have to be compiled manually.

We use elog, having already used it in MEG We must then compulsorily also make manufacturing  and test reports. The expected space-type documentation format for these documents is in word.

Below is a small example of a test table, with just a few steps.

Thanks again

Manuela

You can export logbook entries into a CSV file, then load it into Excel.

Hi everybody,

I am trying to setup my personal ELog, defining attributes and stuff like that. I just tried to make some nested commands but I really could not achieve that. 

The idea is something like this:

Attributes = Author

Options Author = Tizio{1}, Caio{2}, Sempronio{3}

{1} Attributes = Author, Project

{1} Options Project = Proj1{a}, Proj2{b}, Proj3{c}

{a} Attributes = Author, Project, Year

{a} Options Year = 2017, 2019

Anyway, when I select Proj1 nothing really happens. So, is there any way to set up nested commands like in the reported example?

Many thanks in advance!

P.S. Is there any documentation in which are reported all the possible commands that can be used?   

Atrributes can only be defined once in a logbook.
But you can select which attributes are shown with the commands:

• Show Attributes = <list>
  Attributes present in this list are shown in the single entry page. Omitting attributes can make sense for attributes which are automatically derived from other attributes via the Change <attribute> command.
• Show Attributes Edit = <list>
  The same as Show Attributes, but for the entry form.

Those can be redifined in conditional attribute clauses.

(See https://elog.psi.ch/elog/config.html)

Hi,

I'm getting the TEXTSIZE TOO BIG message every time I have more text in my entry.  I understand there is a way to increase the TEXTSIZE and re-compile.  Where can I find the TEXTSIZE parameter that I can increase and also how do I re-compile.

Appreciate your help.

Thanks.
Illam

Hi,  any help will be appreciated on this.  I have not still figured this out.

Thanks.

Hi Illam,

You can find it in src/elogd.h, #define TEXT_SIZE  250000, the original value 250000, you can change it to a larger one like #define TEXT_SIZE    1000000. Then recompile it again, just need typing "make". Elog Version is 3.1.3 in my site. HTH.

Cheers,

Xuan Wu

Hi Xuan,

Sorry for the delayed response.  I just got back from my travel.  I tried your solution, but in my system I don't see elogd.h in the src folder.  Here is what I see and also I don't see any "make" binary in the folders.  I'm running the Windows version.

Thanks.

Hello,

I would like to utilize the "New Entries" button on the quick filter bar, but it dates back to 1969.  Is there a way to customize this or fix it?

I have an issue where not all users are able to log into their sessions and they are still settling on the login page
