Not at all. This is the time it takes to build the full text index on your rather old / low performance phone. This isn't a dig about your phone, it's simply an explanation for the relatively long wait. That said, I think we should change the message that we show there. It would make much more sense if the message said something like "preparing the dive list". > I append the log to this mail. > > Then it says "Dives loaded from local dive data file" and the dive > list > is shown as expected. Good. > When I tap the filter button, nothing happens. You don't see anything happen. If you gently pull down on the dive list, I am quite certain that you will see the filter header on top. For some reason QML is no longer showing that header by default and I need to see if I can figure out why that is the case :-( > When I double-tap the filter button, the onscreen keyboard opens, but > no > filter text box is presented. There is actually no specific double-tap action - but weirdly when you do open-close-open, then on the second open it does show the virtual keyboard - but not on the first. Again, no idea why, something to investigate. > With the onscreen keyboard open I blindly continue to type some text > and > hit the RETURN key on the on-screen keyboard.

But please with the current production version (3.0.1 - 4.9.3.1251) as that has some rather significant changes in the way we access storage. > One final moan.

From past interactions with you on similar issues I know that your screen has some rather extreme font size to screen size ratio. The layout tends to work fairly well for more usual font/screen ratios, but even there I can force similar issues with extremely long location names. I need to figure out how to better deal with that scenario. Something else for the todo list. /D _______________________________________________ subsurface mailing list [email protected] http://lists.subsurface-divelog.org/cgi-bin/mailman/listinfo/subsurface
