Re: [Dx4win] DX4WIN 8.02 SAME CALL Window Advice
For problem number 1 all I can suggest is enlarging the SAME CALL window while you are performing the QSO checks for the same call. Just put the cursor over the lower edge of the window and drag to enlarge it. For problem number 2 the automatic pop up help can be turned off. The function will still be available with a click of the right button of the mouse when over the SAME CALL window. BTW, I am still waiting for confirmation of a 160 mtr Baker County, OR, QSO from Joe sent with my SASE with a GS enclosed.

This brings up all the QSO's with that station in the SAME CALL window so I can choose which one to confirm and set for a label in order to reply. The two issues are this. 1. DX4WIN automatically loads the OLDEST QSO into the QSO window and highlights the oldest QSO in the SAME CALL window and scrolls to the bottom of the qso list in that window. If the card is from a station with which we have had many QSO's, and all the QSO's can't be displayed in the SAME CALL window, this means the QSO I need to select is off the top of the list and I have to scroll the whole list up to the more recent QSO's. Is there a way to have DX4WIN automatically load the NEWEST QSO and display the more recent QSO's in the SAME CALL window. 2. When you start to move the cursor in the SAME CALL window a Pop Up Help is displayed saying Double-click to go to QSO. Though it disappears after a moment it often covers up the information, date and time, that I need to identify the correct QSO. Though the help is probably helpful for an occasional user it is a nuisance after you have seen it 25 times, not to mention 1000 times. Is there a way to turn this on and off? [As a comparison the DX Spots window does not have the same Pop Up Help. It is just common usage that you double click on the spot to load it into the QSO window. Why does the SAME CALL window have to have this help. It has been there for many versions now, I had hoped this issue would have been worked on by now.] Thanks everyone for your help.

I'm not using the same version but for No 2 under preferences QSO uncheck Show Hints I think will fix it. -Original Message- From: dx4win-boun...@mailman.qth.net [mailto:dx4win-boun...@mailman.qth.net] On Behalf Of (K7ZO) Scott Tuthill Sent: Tuesday, 20 April 2010 2:45 p.m. To: dx4win@mailman.qth.net Subject: [Dx4win] DX4WIN 8.02 SAME CALL Window Advice I just got done processing over 1,000 cards for NK7U as his QSL manager.
