With the new ELCode tags, one can insert screen dumps pretty easy into elog entries. I personally use HoverSnap 0.8 under Windows, there are similar tools under Linux. HoverSnap puts a "Capture.jpg" file in a selectable directoy when you press PrintScreen, then you can instert this file with the button. Here is such a screendump example:

I fixed that in the SVN revision 1583. The fix will be contained in the upcoming version 2.6.1.

Do you have 2.6.0-bata5 for linux as setup for RPM install. I was able to locate the version for windows but not for linux.
Thanks for your help.


There is a 2.6.0 out by now.

To my knowledge you need a VirtualHost entry, plus a "URL = http://exo-elog.stanford.edu" entry in elogd.cfg

What version of Visual Studio do you use for compile Elog on windows.

I have downloaded the Tar from svn and am having some errors, but then I've go VS.Net 2003. I wondering if this was done with 6.0?

thanks

Right now I'm using VS.Net 2003, but you should be able to compile it with 6.0, except that you have to redo the project file, which might not be backwards compatible. An alternative is to use gcc under cygwin, which is a free alternative for windows.

I usually keep http://midas.psi.ch/elog/config.html up-to-date, but I agree that it's a bit hard to find the additions there, that's why there is the change log Wink

The ELCode is described on a separate page, which can also be accessed by clicking on the ELCode link below the text box of the logbook entry page.
