This may be due to how I have my config file setup

Example:

Attributes = A, B
Options B = Please Select A
Options A = One{1}, Two{2}
{1} Options B = 1, 2,
{2} Options B = 3, 4,

when I change the primary attribute in the find field, the corrispnding secondary attribute dosn't refresh properly with the list of values.

I am able to use the conditional options as expected when creating a new logbook.

Hello,

Is it possible to remove the "active" checkbox a user sees when they click on "config"?  Alternatively, is it possible to have a new user arrive directly at the logbook they chose, rather than starting out at the config screen?

We are running elog-3.1.1 on SL6 with webserver authentication.  For the most part this works great, but somehow a few users become inactive after they login for the first time.  They claim they didn't un-check "active," but I can't think of any other way this would happen.

Many thanks,
Devin

Yepp, this is a (missing) feature of the elog command. Can you pre-process your messages outside of it, or do I have to add code to elog to do that?

Okay, I found two ways to add very long lines:
- if the very long line does not contain a space then this will screw the printout.
- if the line has been added as plain text using the elog command, there will be no line breaks added.

It would be nice if the elog command would have an option to break lines to a maximum line length.
But for the moment I'll just modify the applications that make use of the elog command.

Obviously there is: this logbook does add line breaks?!?

Maybe it is only a problem with entries made by the "elog" command?
I'll find it out and re-post.

We use ELOG for our accelerator operation logbooks. As part of the shift handover every shift prints out all
entries made during the shift and files the printouts. If one entry in the shift was plain text without
appropriate linebreaks (like this one), then this screws up the printout: the whole window is scaled to the width
of this line and either the printout is cut off at the right side, or the whole content is scaled down to very
tiny scale, which makes it unreadable.

Is there a way to enforce line breaks in plain text entries?
