Re: SharedTags.dat wiped clean

Well luckily I found that my machine at home had a month-old "SharedTags.dat" that I was able to bring to work and save most of our data. I will from now on create a daily backup of that file named "SharedTags.bak." Could this backup be implemented into the "Settings Special...

So somewhere during the last few updates, I don't know, my SharedTags.dat was completely reset. All data over the last year or so wiped clean, including the names of the five Extra columns I had and all data that was in the Comment column. A lot of that was critical data:( Does anyone know what coul...

Re: Shared Tag File Size, 2nd try

But anyway I will try tha...

Shared Tag File Size

Ok so now that we're running XY with the the auto-refreshing shared tag database, and thank you - it works wonderfully, is there any potential that the shared file will become so big and cumbersome that it will start to affect XY's performance? I mean, what are the limitations? What if I wanted all ...

Re: Custom Columns, Tags Labels....

Yes! This is exactly what I intended. It is important that I make the system easier to use for the not-so computery guys. Being able to add the machine attribute to the file on the fly is perfect. I also made a "Material" column using the same method. As you can see I don't use the tree, s...
