I have the following in a local logbook config: 
 
  append on edit = "\n\n[$date: $short_name]\n" 
 
When I upload an attachment to an entry, it appears like the page is 
getting refreshed in the browser and the 'append on edit' action is called 
again. This results in two appended strings in the text entry, one for the 
initial edit and one for the upload. 
 
Is this by design or an inadvertent result of uploading an attachment? 
 
My preferred handling of this - and perhaps a more intuitive behavior - 
would be to have the append/prepend actions happen once and only once for 
each edit or reply. 
 
BTW Stephan, many thanks for the great program. 

Hello everyone, I am new to the forum.

I currently have an attribute which is a list. From this drop down menu, I can only access around 100 options (ELog restriction I think). How can I extend my drop down list to say 200?

Example:

Attributes = RB

Options RB = a, b, c, ...,etc.

Thanks,

Paul

Hi,

right now I'm testing Elog to use it as a task/todo-log for our small 
workgroup. What I saw so far looks very nice and I like it very much. 
Thanks for the good work.

Playing with all the configuration possibilities I have one issue:
I like to use the "Extendable options" but I can't combine them with 
the "Conditional attributes".

-- snip

Options Area = Area_1{1}, Area_2{2}, Area_51{3}
{1} Options Ressort = Res01, Res whatever, end so on
{2} Options Ressort = somthing else, fill in
{3} Options Ressort = Alien observation, Budget planning
Extendable options = Ressort

-- snip

The "Conditinal Attributes" do have the "Add Ressort" button and the elog-
entry is written with this new attribute. But the new attribute is not 
inserted into the config file.

Long time ago I last read C syntax but mabye the function 
add_attribute_option should take care of the prefix {n} in extendable 
options?

Or do I miss something in the configuration syntax? 

  Regards,

  David

Hi,

the use of extendable options in the global section seem to "crash" elogd 
when creating a new entry.
My elogd.cfg is included
the problem attribute is "Client"
Should it be possible to have it extendable only in one specific logbook ?

Are extendable and conditionnal "compatible" on the same set of attributes ?

Cheers,
Marc

Hey eloggers,

I am setting up an ELOG to log the cleanroom fabrication in our startup (Luxtelligence SA). The fabrication is structured in different process steps that are performed by several wafers at the same time (each wafer as an ID).

I am looking for an possibility to put a list of several integers as one of the attributes.

Here an example:

Does something like this exsist?

Thanks in advance for your help.

Hi,

I'm currently trying to setup a logbook which will contain process descriptions. One of the attributes will be the resists that are used. This could be more than one resist, hence I try to use MOptions but users should also be able to add materials to the selection list. When I write the following, I get some problems though:

Required Attributes = Name, Author, Resists
MOptions Resists =  Nano Copolymer EL-10, S1813
Extendable options = Resists

If a user wants to add a resist, he gets a textbox to add the new resist (which will contain what was already toggled), but there is now way to select also other resists that are already available, without saving the post and than edit it again. Previously selected resists are deselected when a new resist is added (if the user had emptied the textbox) and one can not save the newly added attribute option without saving the whole entry.

Is there a nice way to implement this (am I overlooking an obvious solution), or is this not possible at all. I guess an ideal solution would be to get some sort of ok button when one adds an attribute option and after confirming the new value that one gets back to the checkboxes without exiting the edit mode.

Regards,

Michaël

PS: This is the complete config for this logbook:

Theme = default
Page Title = $logbook - $Name
Edit Page Title = $logbook
Comment = Photolithography Processes

Quick filter = Name, Resists
Preset Author = $long_name
Reverse sort = 1

Attributes = Name, Author, Resists
Sort Attributes = Resists, Name, Author
Required Attributes = Name, Author, Resists
MOptions Resists =  Nano Copolymer EL-10, S1813
Extendable options = Resists
Sort Attribute Options Resists = 1

List display = Name, Author, Resists

I want to extend the usage of ELOG and have 2 Questions:

1. Is it possible to have Fields which only appears if another selection is done? e.g. I create a new entry. This new entry has a type field. If I chose the Type "ABC" another field appears where the departemnt could be choosen. If I select Type "DEF" the Department field does not appear.

2. I have a field Status. This is a predefined field with 3 entries (New,  under progress, closed). If i change the status field time, date old and new status should be logged or written in the text field. I can log this with the answer field with a new ID. But is there any other way to log it in the text field or log it with no new ID? 

Can i implement the wishes above? If yes how does it work?

Thanks for your help

Hi,

Is there a way to export the ELOG entries into a file like an Excel sheet or something.  I see import but not export.

Appreciate your help.

Thanks.
