BT 1.07

[Pepo]

A few minutes ago (around 16:40) I've noticed a cryptic "20100-state" in History. [...] a few seconds later the line completely disappeared!

Seen again in 1.07 (however I'm not exactly sure with the "20100" - I've copied it in clipboard and later overwrote the clipboard contents with something else (I'm occasionally missing a clipboard history)

Could be 0x20100 that's waiting to run, the running state is in the history, the 0x20100 is removed.
But I put the remove function in a 5 minute time loop, that's the problem.
Shouldn't show the 0x20100, is in the bug list.

I've got a BT rule(s) notification:

Oznam od BoincTasks
Active BoincTasks rule(s): 1
14.06.11 12:06   viac...

However,

• all my rules are set to either "show log" or "show nothing", but some rule got logged regardless of it,
• the "more..." link points to nowhere (or some template name? see the link),
• is "1" just "one rule" or "the rule number one"? Displaying its name (or completely with computer + project + app + task name) would be more valuable,
• Re: New parts to translate for BT 1.07 is missing "Active BoincTasks rule(s)" text.

Yep the text isn't shown yet, thinking, thinking. I will probably show the full text there.
The link goes nowhere it shows the rules log.
The active text isn't translatable, as its still experimental and all the other text is mostly English anyway.

A FONT tag for collapsed notices contains double "<FONT " header:

Code Select Expand

__InsertNoticeCollapse__&nbsp<FONT <FONT COLOR="#000000" SIZE=3><B>__InsertNoticeTitle__</B></FONT>

Corrected.
In my fight against the _ before delete.png.
And I won, it's gone.

Ah. True! Now I remember I've not seen the blue underscore anymore. Congratulation!

Fred, I use three tools of you.
BoincTasks, BOINC Rescheduler, Priority.
All are together in the systray.
Normally Rescheduler and BoincTasks are side by side in my systray- sometimes I press the wrong icon..

Priority have a P and Rescheduler have a S in the systray icon.
BoincTasks have no additional letter, why?
Maybe you could add a T to the icon?

Maybe you could add a T to the icon?

You can set up a hot key for BoincTasks.

Hot key? What's this?
I don't know how to do this.

But OTOH, I click left on the mouse over the systray icon - and BT, BR or P open.
That's faster.

It was just an idea.
Maybe one of the next versions could have a T in the icon?
This would be nice. *thumb up*

BTW. If you could send me the icon/s, I could do it for you.

Hot key? What's this?
I don't know how to do this.

Extra->BoincTasks Settings->General
"Hotkey to show/hide BoincTasks"

Click the mouse on the field to the right, with none or nein in it.
Press a key like Ctrl together with F12.
This key combination can now be used to show BT and hide it, was quicker.

After installing v1.07 I starting having BT crashing/restart problems which got worse and worse (several/hour).  Reinstalled v1.06 and the crashes are gone so there may be a problem with one of the changes in v1.07...

Indeed 1.07 has a more serious bug, only on line of code.
Strangely, it doesn't affect my own test computers, only the Linux machine crashed.
The V 1.08 should be out soon.

Notices are not correctly being sorted (time-wise) - IIRC blocks of incoming notices should be sorted according to their "TimeArrival"...

Is the sorting correct in the BOINC Manager?
I didn't change any sorting, the list is straight from the Client.

I'm now behind a machine, which BT 1.05 displays Notices with the default template (no arrival time displayed). It displays 8 notices received from the client, with their creation times, sorted 28.5. 27.5. 25.5. 16.5. 26.5. (all 5 from SETI), 8.6. (BOINC test project), 10.6. 8.6. (from the client - can not recognize host address in remote_hosts.cfg).
B.Manager 6.12.28 displays these messages (mostly) in correct order, but one "can not recognize host address in remote_hosts.cfg" from 8.6. is placed at the end... But the orders definitely do differ.

On a third machine (with BT 1.04), 8 other notices are sorted equally in both BT and B.Manager  6.12.28.


BTW, when BT is connected to 2 machines, wasn't it supposed to display notices from both of them?

Everything will be corrected in 1.07.

In 1.07, I can still see the messages sorted pretty randomly...
BOINC 6.12.28's Manager seems to be displaying the messages sorted correctly.

I don't see that happening.
Now sort on project name and date.
Can you email me the notices.html file, so I can see what you mean.
