Re: [LegacyUG] Event Notes and now... /par

[Martha Graham]

Hi Cathy,
Thanks again for the ...if... I went in and changed the sentences for 
the events that I use all the time.

It works just fine.

Martha

Re: [LegacyUG] Event Notes and now... /par

[CE WOOD]

Did either of you read Cathy Pinner's reply of Mon, 30 Oct 2017 20:46:24 -0700? 
It told you how to accomplish what you have both been asking:


"Hi Martha,



Then you need this at the end of your sentence definitions. This starts the 
Event Notes on a new line and doesn't leave a blank line if there are no notes.

[:if [Notes]::[CR][Notes]]



The superscript is for the Sources. You can have Sources either before or after 
the Notes - see Options - Customise 7.10

Cathy"

Hi Linda



That is what I have been doing, but I find it awkward and 
remembering to do it.



It would be good if we could manage that as a flag on the Edit Event display, 
with an option to make it the standard for the Event Type or for the whole 
system.

Martha -

I think I have this one figured out.

Before I start entering my notes for an event, I press "Enter" and then start 
my notes.  This basically leaves the first line empty in the note field and the 
notes will print out all nicely grouped on the lines following the description, 
instead of just continuing on the same line.   Just like you want them, I think.

I do not want the superscript 1 and the name, etc at the end of the sentence. 
It confuses the record.

Martha,

So long as you have entered data consistently you can Edit the Event 
Sentence Definitions so that they make sense for your data entry.
Note there are 8 sentences for an Event to reflect the different 
fields you may leave blank. Then there are similar sentences for each 
role when you use Shared Events. They can all be edited.
The key is to enter your data consistently. This mainly relates to the 
Description field.

Hi Brian,
You are right, I must have unticked the boxes for the rtf when I was 
playing with the settings.


I am also unhappy with the wording concerning the events. I cannot get 
them right no matter what I do. Some of them make no sense at all.


Holy Moly! I just found the dreaded /par on one of my files.
But what is weird is that the report I just finished tweaking did not 
have it.


I did a copy and paste from the event, copied it into to Notepad, 
re-pasted back into event notes and they are still there.


What next?

Martha,

As a member of the beta test list I was able to find a bug report on 
this problem with reports in text format and have added your report to 
it.


One thing I was not able to confirm was your statement that the 
problem also occurs with rtf reports. When I tested the rtf output and 
opened the report in MS Word 2007 the event notes were included.
