We have several logbooks running here with somewhat cryptic names. The comment field for the
logbook describes its intent well enough, so the thought was that the comment could show up in the
status bar (or tooltip) when you hover over the logbook name in the tabs at the top of the page.

  1231   Thu Jul 7 04:44:12 2005 Question Gary Claysonimppster@gmail.comRequestWindows2.6.0-betaNew Message Formatting and Default Settings
Hello All. Please Help! How can I turn off the formatting controls above the message text when making a new or reply entry? I included the flat 'Default Encoding = 1' in my config file, but it seems to have no effect. The log has been set up to suppress all email notification, as SMTP is not being used at my location (MS Exchange Server is being used). Also How can I turn off the icon selection panel to the left of a new message text box? And, finally, is it possible to turn off the Suppress Email notification checkbox AND not send emails? Forgive me for asking yet another - but the same question about turning off the Encoding buttons - Is there some method of setting I can enter into the config file to turn off the Encoding and default it to text entry only?

Forgive this entry being so long, I'm new to using ELOG; Thanks Stefan for an incredible application. Well thought out and elegant. Keep up the good work.

PS Reworking the source code, then recompiling it, is not a viable option for me at this time.

I wonder if there is any way to use the javascript 'window.status' method to accomplish this. It would be a nice addition when there are many logbooks.

I just downloaded and installed beta2 and most of my questions have been answered. I now have a new question: What are the possible settings with the 'Default Encoding' flag? Can I please get a rundown on this one as the config syntax page does not list this one. Thanks in Advance.

Hello All. Stefan, would it be possible to add one more option to the Suppress Default flag? I'd appreciate a setting that would suppress emails being sent and remove the option from the page. Or, has this been accomplished? And, if so, what is that setting. Thanks in advance!! Keep up the great work.

The config page does list this one, but you have to access the online one since I have no access to modify the one you have on your hard disk Wink

You need the current CVS version which has this implemented, or you wait for the next official release.

MS Exchange Server has and SMTP server inside, I use this all the time.

By clicking on the smiley on the top row next to "FONT".

You can put a
Suppress email to users = 1
into the config file, but the checkbox will still be there, but non-functional. Maybe I should remove it in that case...

You are not supposed to rework the source code, but if you want the cutting edge features, you need to recompile from CVS or wait for official releases.

I added a tooltip to the logbook showing the comment field. The status bar is a bit difficult since it requires Javascript and is not supported by all browsers. But I hope the tooltip is good enough. The modification is in CVS, you can try it at the forum.
