Hi Greg,

You will probably see more activity on the MacLoggerDX Google Group <https://groups.google.com/d/forum/macloggerdx>, this is just a backup list in case the Google Group is down.

In the DX panel ...

RSTS/RSTR

MacLoggerDX keeps 2 separate sets of persistent values. When you manually change the radio mode or auto tune changes it MacLoggerDX chooses one set based on the mapped mode. If the mapped mode is CW or digital, then the RST set is displayed and the other set is used for voice modes. When you edit either set the new value is stored for that mode.

If your radio is in CW or a digital mode and you enter 599 that will be stored and reloaded the next time the radio is in CW or a digital mode.

If your radio is in USB mode and you enter 59 then that will be stored and reloaded the next time the connected radio is in a voice mode - SSB, AM, FM etc.

This all happens automatically - you just have to enter the values and they will be remembered. To set this up or test it, change the Radio panel Mode popup (or your connected radio front panel mode) from voice to another mode, enter the new RST or RS value and tab out of the field to save it.

You can also use the qso_was_logged.scpt to reset RST after each QSO. Restore RST (K5TXT).scpt from the download Extras folder (instructions in the script comments).


> Can tab orders be changed?

No, the column order in each table (Log Spots etc) can be changed but not the tab order. 
(Apple’s NSTabView doesn’t really support tab re-ordering at runtime and we try to stick with Apple UI guidelines)

Log Panel

The data can be sorted by clicking in the column heading. The column sorted by is highlighted or checked. Clicking on it a second time will reverse the order of the sort. Dragging column headings will allow you to rearrange their order. (column order is saved in your preferences). You can make the column wider by dragging the column header vertical margins, double-click the line between any two column headers and the column’s width will be automatically set.
