I see what Ron is talking about. He wants to make the actual entry in the log from the pop-up. Right now, you click on "log current entry" and you then have to go down to the actual log and click on the next line to save it. Personally, I like to look at all the populated fields and the current method makes me do this just in case there is a flub somehow. But, I would be glad to have a way to save it in the pop-up too. Not a bad idea.
