Set QSO start time not working
Set QSO start time not working
Since the last update I have noticed that setting the QSO start time when leaving callsign field is no longer working despite me having the "Set QSO start time when leaving callsign field" option checked in the user preferences, I'm having to manually set the start time, is this a known bug?

I'm using version 2.23.0.0, it's a strange because it was working fine then just stopped working.

Re: Set QSO start time not working
Have you re checked the setting in the program config is checked still?

Re: Set QSO start time not working
Found it!
Its only working if you use the 'TAB' key to leave the field, not by mouse click

Re: Set QSO start time not working
Having spoken to Lele he stated the following:
"Yes it was working when clicking in other fields but it was also being triggered by any other update made on the user interface that removed the focus from callsign, and this was being done automatically in some cases when the focus moved away from callsign or if some services answered a bit later than expected resulting in being the last to update user interface"
As a result Lele had to limit the set time function when leaving the call sign field to ONLY be actioned by 'Tabbing' out of the field.
My apologies for not spotting this earlier but as a keyboard operator I tend not to use the mouse any more than I can help, I will edit the user guide accordingly when I have time and the text in the program config will be updated in due course.
