TOPIC: Beta Version 2.5.9 Released

Re: Beta Version 2.5.9 Released 16 years 8 months ago #508

Hmm, strange. Any chance you had the program open twice at once? If you can reproduce it, let me know. I haven't heard anyone else mention this yet.

Well someone has to be first. I'll let you know.

Yeah if you have the program opened twice it can turn into hades as I found out when trying to do a presentaion.
Never open two to transfer comments from one template to another then continue working on a report.
Always close both of them then reopen , and do this before you start a real report or you could be into the house of pain.
While on photos , I have a small glitch where when I check to leave the first photo open for the cover it puts a photo in there anyway when I close and reopen the inspection at times.
So I end up deleting and reentering that one.
Keep in mind this is if I do not insert a cover photo before I close.

Bob,

That's not a glitch, it was programmed that way (or at least not programmed to not act that way). After you save the inspection and reopen the inspection it shifts ALL the photos up so there aren't any spaces open. The reason for this is if you go and import 300 photos as several people this week have told me they've done, then go through and delete a good 30% of them, after you save and reopen it has shifted them all up. This minimizes the number of tabs opens (using less ram) as well as makes it easier to find the photos.I figured if you're entering photos you'd choose the cover at the same time. I guess you can throw any old picture there if you plan on not choosing the cover until later.

Yeah, stay away from opening two copies of the program. I've been going through and looking at what I need to make sure to have open in a random folder so that there's no problems. But even then if you opened up both then saved one as default template, then the other, the 2nd would take precedent.

So even if just say opening to transfer comments but not working on a report avoid that also? ok
Far as the pics go I will need to add the cover before say stepping away from the report to do something else and closing the report .ok

I would stay away from opening the program twice until I have some more time this weekend to look at it. Right now the templates get unzipped to the same folder, it probably won't be an issue if you were only working on templates, but definitely would be for inspections.

For the cover photo, yes, add it, or add a place holder before closing out.
