Selelct-A-Graph suggestion

Post by sjukmidlands »

Don't know if this has already been highlighted but its just a suggestion:

On the Select-A-Graph screen, when first opened, the End Date/Time is the current date/time. That's perfectly fine.

However sometimes I open the screen more than once during a session that Cumulus is open, and it still shows the same time for End Date/Time as when opened previously, when it would be more useful if it automatically always showed the current End Date/Time even if its been opened and closed before in a session.

How practical and easy would it be to implement this?

I don't want it to suddenly change settings when you're not looking, when you've already set them. Someone did ask for something similiar, but in this case I think they wanted it to always show the last 24 hours when you opened it (as it does the first time you open it). I think I said I would put a button on the form that would update the start and end dates to the last 24 hours, but I don't think I've done it yet.

Thanks Steve, that would be brilliant, a perfect solution!

To by default show the last 24 hours when opened would mean it always showed the current end time when opened. A button to set that would be the perfect answer, whenever you have time.

Hope the weather is Ok up there! Only recorded -5.5c here so far but expecting it to get colder tonight.
