Scanner Screen software for 436 and 536

[mrkelso]

I was thinking more like this (Log Views) Just using this as an example of a log layout. This is the log program from freescan.

Your new version is working great here. Really like the real grid view and also the 10 code section. This software is going places!

Thanks.

Im checking out the real time grid, but instead of putting new logs at the top, and rolling the older ones off the bottom, after it fills the screen, it just adds them to the bottom off the screen, and the scroll bar moves up (if I am doing it correctly). This means to read current info, I have to keep scrolling with the mouse.

Also, when I adjust the size of the fields in the window, the next log entry reverts them back to what they were.

Really long department names, keep making the window wider and wider, auto resizing the window after it was set.

PS: Not bi*ching, just making observations. If its supposed to work this way, no biggie

I coded the grid in about 30 minutes.

I have it autosizing I will disable that and let the user choose the width.

The log does not auto scroll right now if it did it would be hard to look at the log while data is coming in.

I will make it more intelligent later.

Thanks for the info I will fix it real quick

No biggie. No way to put the new data on the top line, and move each previous line down one?

That is now my other program does it. Here is a screen shot in case you dont have it, and want to see how they have it laid out.

Access denined is caused by a program locking the log file most of the time, excel is famous for this.

Did you view the log file with excel?

Yea, that is looking good, formatting wise.

I didn't touch the log file. The program was running on its own while I was in another entirely separate application which wouldn't have been even in the My Documents folder, let alone the Scanner Screen subfolder.

That is very strange.

I checked the "Log Data" button again and so far things have been fine.. been running for about 45 minutes now.

The only thing I can think of is I started logging initially and went into a CPU-intensive program (a video game); maybe I took too many cycles away from the program.

 

[Vonskie]

New version .47

Real-Time Grid scrolls in opposite direction newest on top that way you can see the latest events without scrolling.

Also you can select a range in the grid area press control + C this will copy the text to clip board and you can paste else where.

 

[davenlr]

Awesome.

Vonskie, how often do you query the scanner (GLG) to get data? I know you started at every 1 second.. Not sure if you have shortened that?

Outstanding stuff! I was wondering, with the main window, there is a lot of real estate, could the "running log" be combined with the main screen to achieve a single "command type" screen?

I was thinking about doing that just need to think it through
