<TAB> Key and RST

Something I have noticed on the past few versions is that when I use the key to attempt to highlight all RST digits, just the 'S' digit is highlighted as if I used the cursor keys. Is this only on my install or has anyone else noticed this?

Also - When moving to the Name field, the program used to highlight the whole name. So when QRZ pre-fills in the name, people like "Robert" who go by "Bob" are easier to change the name. Now the cursor is placed before the first character. I am not sure if these two, minor, issues are related.

73 and thanks...

Hi Paul,

This is feature :-). Usually when you get report, you just change S value, so only S value is highlighted and you can change it by typing right signal report.

This is a bug and I'll fix it, thank you.

Hi Petr, Thanks for the

Hi Petr,

Thanks for the reply. Actually I knew of the feature to select only the "S" and that is usually what I do, but once in awhile I need to change the "R" also. Say when I receive a report of 449. According to the help file, the TAB key should highlight all RS(T) digits. From CQRLog's help file, new QSO section:

"...You can also move between fields with TAB key but there is whole RST highlighted, so reports where more than a single character needs to be overwritten (ie. 449) can be entered easier than with 'tricky' RST."

Thanks...
