 | Harry Martin | harrymartin772@gmail.com | Bug report | Linux | 3.1.5 | Re: collapse does not seem to work as expected | I should add that this does not happen in every logbook. I'm looking into what the distinction is that causes this in certain logbooks and not in others.

When I click on "collapse," even several times, I still see all the replies in each thread rather than just one entry representing each entire thread.
I am running elogd 3.1.5 on devuan chimaera (bullseye) which I built from source. I had the same results with 3.1.4 and 3.1.3.
I tried to disable the quick filter just to see if that impacted the behavior, but it didn't.
If there are any other tests I can use to narrow the problem, please suggest them. Without a working collapse feature, I cannot get a quick birdseye view of, say, all open threads.

| Harry Martin | harrymartin772@gmail.com | Bug report | Linux | 3.1.5 | Re: collapse does not seem to work as expected | Figured it out: I had "Sort Attributes" set on the logbooks that were failing to collapse correctly. At least, I think that is the distinction.
I think I can live with "Sort Attributes" disabled; I don't recall why I chose to set the "Sort Attributes" in the first place. But I still think this is an issue.

| Harry Martin | harrymartin772@gmail.com | Bug report | Linux | 3.1.5 | Re: 3-level conditional not working | Tried a variant, this time for NEW entries (not EDIT), which I meant to do to begin with; sorry if that was confusing.
[cond_test]
attributes = region, manufacturer, model
options region = american{us}, japanese{jp}, european{eu}
show attributes = region
{us} options manufacturer = ford, chrysler, gm
{jp} options manufacturer = toyota{toy}, nissan{nis}, mitsubishi{mit}
{eu} options manufacturer = audi, mercedes, bmw, volvo, fiat
{us} show attributes = region, manufacturer
{jp} show attributes = region, manufacturer
{eu} show attributes = region, manufacturer
{toy} options model = corolla, prius, miata
{nis} options model = sentra, murano
{mit} options model = starion, outlander, mirage
{toy,nis,mit} show attributes = region, manufacturer, model
I'm not sure if my multi-character conditional names are allowed or not, but they do seem to work... somewhat. Note that I even tried a couple different ways of specifying which attributes to show (single versus multiple OR conditionals). The problem now is that all of the attributes are always shown, seeming to ignore the conditionals entirely.

Not sure if this is a bug or not; if it is not, kindly reclassify the category.
Following is a small example of what I will dub a 3-level, conditional logbook:
[cond_test]
attributes = region, manufacturer, model
show attributes edit = region
options region = american{1}, japanese{2}, european{3}
{1} options manufacturer = ford, chrysler, gm
{2} options manufacturer = toyota{4}, nissan{5}, mitsubishi{6}
{3} options manufacturer = audi, mercedes, bmw, volvo, fiat
{1,2,3} show attributes edit = region, manufacturer
{4} options model = corolla, prius, miata
{5} options model = sentra, murano
{6} options model = starion, outlander, mirage
{4,5,6} show attributes edit = region, manufacturer, model
This example is hardly complete, but it is sufficient to demonstrate the issue I am running into. This works until I select from the 2nd level (manufacturer); it won't display the dropdown for the model (I think my show attribute edit is supposed to display that). Is there a restriction on how many levels of conditional I can have? If there is, it would be disappointing because I am trying to do something similar to this example.
I hope there is something very simple I can do to correct this, or perhaps a completely different approach that accomplishes the same thing. I'd like to stick with the multi-level selection process as I have done here.
I am running elog 3.1.5 on Devuan Chimaera (approx. Debian Bullseye, sans systemd) in a Virtualbox VM.

 | Harry Martin | harrymartin772@gmail.com | Bug report | Linux | 3.1.5 | show attributes directive does not work? | Follows a very simple logbook definition:
[simple]
Comment = test show attributes directive
Attributes = a, b, c
Show Attributes = a
(Assume that all attributes are used farther down. This is for illustration only.)
To see what I see when I run this tiny elogd.cfg, see attachment.
"Show attributes" does not seem to be working because all of the attributes are shown, not just those specified in the directive. Or do I misunderstand/forget something?

 | Harry Martin | harrymartin772@gmail.com | Bug report | Linux | 3.1.5 | Re: collapse does not seem to work as expected | I am not sure if either "Sort Attributes" or the Quick Filter are the main issue, though they could be. I have implemented a work-around for now, but it really would be nice if this worked as expected. Or perhaps someone can provide an example of a logbook with working "collapse" functionality. Thank you for this nifty program; everything else aside, this tool helps keep my work in order.
