New D69 fix list
Below are the list of comments that come from users learning to use the new page.
- return to Time Line Generator
spec
- On the "module" page, there is no way to change the
number of groups. To do this you must create a new module and set the number of groups
before you begin.
- The reading of MECAR for ramp information takes too much time. We
will ask that the Main Ring/ MI ramp generator program set TLG owned parameters whenever
the ramp length is changed. We will ask that C49 does the same with Tevatron ramps
- Scree Copy via pgm_Tools erase background and also crahes program.
- It is unclear how the edit protection works. We were unable to
edit the module we just created even though the edit protection was off.
- MODULE ATTRIBUTES window will not pop to front when occluded.
- The program allows multiple modules with the same name. Also
allows multiple sequences with the same name.
- The "smart menus" are frusterating. A partial menu
should never be presented. If the programmer thinks he knows which items will be selected,
the menu can be presented with the cursor defaulting to that item, but the entire menu
should be shown.
- In the 'MODULE DEVICES' window change column headings to read:
'Ramp Reset' & 'Ramp length (sec)'
The comments above are directed toward making the program as simple to use as possible.
