  69235   Tue Oct 20 02:34:46 2020 Idea Anthony Krishockajkrishock@verizon.netQuestionWindowslatestField values dependent on other selections

All,

I would like to know if there is a way in elog to populate a field based on the value of another field. What I want to do is have a field with a few selections (a menu) and another text field that populates based on what I select from the menu.

 

Is this possible?

Thanks for your suggestion. Right now, my log is configured as follows:

Options Eyepiece = Pentax{a}, TeleVue{b}, Meade{c}
{a} Options Pentax = 5mm, 20mm, 30mm
{b} Options TeleVue = 7mm Nagler, 10mm Radian, 24mm Panoptic
{c} Options Meade = 8.8mm UWA, 14mm UWA, 26mm QX

If I select "Pentax", I would like the other two options to be unavailable. Instead, all three options are shown. Can I mask the other unused options?

Hello,

I am interested in finding a preferrably single-click way to capture a screenshot and posting it automatically to a new elog entry . I would be doing this from Windows. Is this possible?

Thanks

Hi,

I'm trying to use the Sort Attributes option to sort all entries by a user specified date.  The issue I'm running into, is that although I can get it to work, it seems to only display the last 6 entries that I'm sorting by.  If I click "All" to show all the entries, it's sorted perfectly. I'm using:

Sort Attributes = Due Date

Reverse sort = 0

Is there something I'm missing to get this working.  Reading through the manual nothing jumped out at me.

Thank you, Andreas!  Not sure why I kept overlooking it in the manual.  As for the number of entries when I sort, I'm not sure.  I'll set it up to display a larger number and see what happens.

Entries per page = <number>

Funnily the default is "20". I have no idea why you see 6 entries.

  69413   Mon Nov 15 15:41:04 2021 Idea Anthonyanthony.weathers@pm.meQuestionAll3.1.4Shared logbook and elog.cfg file across multiple installations

Hi,

I'm wondering if it's possible to have a shared logbook and elog.cfg between multiple instances of elog.  Ideally, I'd like to have my logbooks folder and elog.cfg hosted on a nextcloud instance while running the elog service locally.  I've tried this using symlinks and shortcuts on windows with no luck.  I was able to install elog into my mounted nextcloud folder, but this isn't ideal as I would like this to work from multiple computers.

Any ideas or thoughts on how I can do this (if I can actually do this)?

Thank you Sebastian!

I admittidely haven't looked through the page in a while, so I completely missed this feature.  This should solve the problem, although in a slightly different implementation than what I was trying for.

Hi Anthony,

the elog has a mirroring function, which synchornizes config and logs between multiple instances.
See the bottom section of https://elog.psi.ch/elog/config.html

Best wishes,
Sebastian
