Hi Barry

    yup if you type something in the comment line then close that window
1) it doesnt appear in the header info above the s'gram
2) if you reopen the Event Info box  what you just typed in there has 
disappeared

so at the moment I have uninstalled V3.3.0 and gone back to 3.1.8b

The problem I have with 3.1.8b tho, is that the File Save button, 3rd in 
from the left,
doesnt work ... instead I have to click on the File dropdown menu and 
select Save
File in there ,,,, otherwise any work done on the file wont be saved

Regards
Dave

Hi Barry

 

   yup if you type something in the comment line then close
that window

1) it doesnt appear in the header info above the s'gram

2) if you reopen the Event Info box  what you just typed in there
has disappeared


so at the moment I have uninstalled V3.3.0 and gone back to
3.1.8b


The problem I have with 3.1.8b tho, is that the File Save button, 3rd in
from the left,

doesnt work ... instead I have to click on the File dropdown menu and
select Save 

File in there ,,,, otherwise any work done on the file wont be
saved

I have v3.2.6b and got similar results. I entered a short comment and it
didn't save it. Just closing the event information window and reopening
it gave the same results.???

Hi Guys


  Am addressing this to the group rather than directly to Larry ...
2 reasons


1) to make sure its not just my installation of WQ

2) if it isnt, whether others would also find the feature 
useful


Actually the feature used to be there  ... but it disappeared during
one of the

    many WQ updates


OK ....  I still find it really frustrating that I can no longer
save anything in the

in the Event Information Comment line ...

thats the first line ... where you would put the basic info of the event
.... size

location, etc


If I put stuff in there,  then close that window the info isnt saved
and doesnt show

in the text lines above the seismogram.  WQ once upon a time used to
do this

and the loss of this basic data entry means that we cant name the file
....

that is when you are viewing you directory of files in WQ you end up with
lots of

files that have no info as to what they are  just the usual eg
.....

Sydney, Australia (Z) instead of say .... Mw 5.9, Kermadec Islands
(Z)


The only way you can save the comments is if all the other data is
entered ....

date, time, lat, long, etc etc

That's all very well till ya want to put comments for an event that hasnt
been

located / timed professionally ... As other in my region will agree, we
get lots

of unreported events ... mining blasts, small natural quakes 
etc


I'm running the latest version of WQ 3.3.0  32bit on Win XP Home
SP3

WQ 3.2.6b  32bit didnt work either

WQ 3.1.8b  32bit  did work with saving just comments But there
are other issues

with that version


so is it just my computer not liking the latest couple of versions of
WQ

or do others see the same thing ?


cheers

Dave
