Winlog32 Forums

v.4.6.2

It was not my attentions to border the forum with my opinion on the behavior of this update of WL32 , but as I already have giving my "complains" to Colin , and he find them "quite normal" , and he give me " please feel free to open a discussion on the Forum" - so here we are

System:
Vista X64
I have ALL inside the WL32 Window

Cluster Window:
This is now ON TOP of WL32 , no matter what you do , it will be on top ... if you want to se your Database DXCC , the Cluster is right over the page
Please , I know I can Minimize it , move it , and lot of other thing ... but that was not necessary before this update.
Also the Color and the Shadow around the Cluster Window is new - That might be a minor thing for some - but again , it is a pain in my eyes...

QRZ Online:
If you use this feature , you might have notice that you now have to move you Curser back to WL32 Input window.
The curser is hanging in the QRZ Window , and only lopping with the use of Enter on keyboard. You cant get back on the Input window of WL32 with the use of TAB - only way is to use your mouse , and if you don't do that in the right time , the QRZ Window close again.
That was not the case before ...first Enter after putting in a Callsign ,opened the QRZ Window , and then you just keep on using Enter to go down the Input page of WL32.
Fast , smooth and problem free ...

My opinion is , that WL32 may have priority , and not the "slave programs".

Have a great day !

This is also true for my rig control window. I would like it the same way as Jorn. WL32 main program should have priority!

Good morning,

As previously discussed with Colin privately since release 4.5.1, I also find that having the Dxcluster window always on top is a pain as it needs to be minimized every time you want to open an ancillary database.

I understand that the retionale behind this change is to allow users with 2 screens to move the cluster window on the second screen. I would probably find it useful as well if I had two screens. Maybe an idea could be to have a selectable option in settings to allow or not the cluster window to always be on top.

Well I run winlog mainly on a ten year laptop 24/7 with win98, which has a small screen max 800x600. I was very happy with old layout.

But I can't stop progress and one of these days this laptop will stop working.

Thanks Colin for providing v4.7.1 and considering reverting the behaviour of the cluster wiondow back to its original state

Working Flawlessly here.
