Missing Items in Clairvoyant Popups |
Problem User is entering assemblies into an Estimate (or other place where there are more than 960 items to display). When they click on the popup button, it seems to be missing some items. Caught By User bug report, and Turtle Creek testing on Goldenseal estimating software. Workaround You can still type the choice into the clairvoyant field. Solution When you click on the popup button with a large number of items, Goldenseal shows only the first 960 items (that's already a pretty huge menu list). Starting with Goldenseal construction estimating software version 3.5, it shows the first 960, chosen alphabetically. In earlier versions it was taking the first 960 items and then sorting them-- so some items would seem to be "missing" from the list. Technical Details In version 3.2 or so, we stopped sorting menu lists
when records are saved-- that speeds up record saving
by a second or so, at a time when it is very noticeable.
The tradeoff is that menus need to be sorted before they
are used. We were truncating the popup list before sorting,
which caused this minor problem (which most people never have noticed). |
