Filtering on a prefix on Cluster

Post by LB2EG »

Hello,
I want to have spots with spesific prefixes to show up in the cluster pane (F9). Can anyone advice me where to find documentation on the programming syntax to use in the Regular Expression Editor in LOG4OM? The manual does not describe that on page 60 ff.

Thanks!

I like to get cw spots on norwegian hams from RBN, so I can say hello to old friends in between the DXing:)

So it will be prefix LA, LB, LI, LJ and LN.

Open Cluster screen, in CUSTOM tab press EDIT in the filters list
Create a NEW RULE and in the main area type:

^((LA)|(LB)|(LI)|(LJ)|(LN))

then select back and fore color, assign a description and press green V and then SAVE

Hello,
I tested this setup, but it does not do what I hoped it would, what is marking with colour the callsign or country of the spotted prefix.

The filter seems to search for the LA/LB etc. in the comment field, and gives colour to every comment field where the LA, LB etc. is part of any word.

Is it not possible to search for part of a callsign, or a DXCC entity, in the Callsign or DXCC fields?

regards

Right, this filter works on comments only. My mistake on that.
Actually there are no regular expression filters that works on callsign. Maybe in a future version i will add this, but no plans in the short time because i'm fully on other parts of code

Is this filtering feature now on the TO DO list for a furure version of the program?

Yes it is.
Once several releases i will usually "rebuild" interfaces to make them more organized after subsequent patches and adds.
I will add this one as soon as i work on this interface, hopefully soon.
Our "to do list" has more than 100 small and big features/suggestions/bugs we're prioritizing and releasing every some weeks

Thank you.

An alternative could be to make a timeline or watch-list, showing user defined watch items separate from the ordinary cluster spot window, as an user elected alternative or extension to the latest spots list.
