Can you please make a change to have the Quick Filter ComboBox controls reference the field type for ordering purposes?

For example, if attribute Lot Number is Type Numeric then the ComboBox should be listed in numerical order instead of alphanumeric (eg: 1,2,3,11,21 vs 1,11,2,21,3).

Best Regards.

I'm also happy to see this change implemented as we've had to deal with the same issue at times as well. Will this change be incorporated into the latest version (314-2, aka elog-latest.exe), or will there be a new version release (that is not in Changelog yet)? If so, can you give any ETA on this new code availability?

Also I noticed that the Elog Home page still says "Current version is: 3.1.2". I assume that only means it hasn't been updated, not that it means it's the current STABLE version and subsequent releases are beta -- please correct me if I'm wrong. I just want to make sure I understand how the versions and releases work.

Endless thanks for this product and all your work Stefan.

Is it possible to include an option in the next release to have the Options list reference a text file of attributes rather than explicity listing the attributes in the Config file directly?

This would make it much easier to maintain a particular list that is referenced in several log books.

I know you can restrict access to logbooks on per user basis but can anyone tell me if it is possible to HIDE certain logbook tabs/groups on per user basis (ie, so they would just see logbooks they are authorized to see)?

According to the doc on the setting "Last default = <n>" it is intended to restrict Quick Filter searches to the last (n) days of entries, however when I add "Last default = 28" to config it still returns entries far older then 28 days when using the filter search. Am I misunderstanding, or implementing it wrong? We must restrict searches through QF to reduce load.

A couple other side questions which are related:

The doc on this setting says: "Last default = <n>
Some logbooks are very big ans searching through all entries with quick filter can be time consuming. This option sets a default value for the Date quick filter, so that by default only the <n> days are displayed." ...... I'm assuming that by saying "only the <n> days are displayed" that it has actually only searched <n> days ................ vs seaching ALL the logbooks but only displaying <n> days. Please confirm.

Also, why wouldn't the "28" days spec display in the Select Period box beside the Quick Filters? Otherwise it appears to me to be a separate and conflicting item. Best regards!

I just changed to Last default = 31 and even restarted elogd.exe but it still finds a given string older than 31 days. Also the default Select Period box value next to the QF's remains at All Entries. My understanding is it shoud behave like Find, where Show Last Default = 31 should default the display to Month, and also only search within the last month of entries.

I was just referring to "Show last default" (under Find) as a parallel example of how I assume "Last default" should function on the List page.

I also tried values 3 and 7 but "All entries" still displays in the "List period" box. A restart of elogd makes no difference.

Elog v3.1.2, Windows Server 2016 Std, 64 bit.

If you don't mind, I have attached my elogd.cfg. I realize you are quite busy so there is no rush. Thanks.

PS: I just noticed that the attached elogd.cfg indicates version 2.9.2 but it's actually 3.1.2 I have installed (just forgot to update the Welcome line).

Ok thanks for taking the time to try it out. I definitely still show "All entries" in any case, so I will continue to try to resolve on my end and if I find the cause or solution I will share back on the forum.

First though, I noticed you ran 3.1.4 whereas I'm still on 3.1.2. I'm also on Windows Server 2016 and IE 11. Do you think any of that might make the difference?
