20.0. "DECWindows editor bugs, problems, quirks, etc" by VINO::DBIGELOW (Innovate, Integrate, Evaporate) Thu Sep 24 1992 23:23

-    When adding an entry, you must go back to the main menu and restart the
     process for each record entry. Can't we behave like most other
     applications and keep the same window on the screen?

-    Doesn't complain if the 'device' field is empty when adding a LAT system.

-    Device field should be dimmed out when adding a DECserver or Telnet
     system.

-    The wording 'remote server' should just be 'server'. Is there such a thing
     as a local server?

-    Scan profile in System window has bottom half of the widget is cut off.

-    The word 'Generic' appears at the bottom of a system record.
     Needs a label such as 'system type'

-    Crashed when adding a scan.

-    When shrinking the editor window to an icon, it uses the incorrect
     foreground color (white). It should be the default setting.

20.1No client dataVINO::DBIGELOWInnovate, Integrate, EvaporateTue Sep 29 1992 22:438
    
    I have created a new database by adding a single user record.
    Now, when I bring up the editor, I get the following message 
    "No Client data present in database". This is incorrect, because I have
    added 1 record. Also, the word 'Client' should not be capatilazied.

20.2client == system, client != userOPG::PHILIPAnd through the square window...Wed Sep 30 1992 09:5811
Dave,

  I have fixed the capitalization! in actual fact the message
  means that you have no system records, not user records!

  Have you added any system definitions?

  I have changed the word client to system for the next kit.

Cheers,
Phil
20.3!ambigious nowVINO::DBIGELOWInnovate, Integrate, EvaporateWed Sep 30 1992 17:066
    Phil,
    
    That's what I figured. Changing the wording to 'system' should clear
    the ambiguity.
