Title: Bob mode
Post by: mhw on September 17, 2013, 01:49:17 PM

The drop down box that appears when typing a tag name does not populate with any of the DL* memory tag names. This is new to V1.1. I have checked the ladder options and they are set the same as I have them in V1.0.

I placed my Ladder View in "Bob" mode (Nicknames ON, Elements Off), brought up the contact editor and hit "D" and I got the auto-complete.  It also behaved the same with all element documentation options ON.

Please provide specific details to duplicate.  Thanks!

Give DLX0 the nickname "tag1". Give X0 the nickname "tag2". Type "tag" for the contact and see what populates in the drop down.

Why does it work for me? I have D0 as tag1 and DLx0 as tag2. I inserted a new contact. As I type in it shows both nicknames.

Some people are just better than others. :)
In V1.0 it worked all the time. In V1.1 it appears to come and go. ??? I know this can't be. (or can it)
