Yesterday late, coded the automation of the recon notes... as soon as the period close project fetch is executed, any difference is directly printed to the Notes 1 field, or OK if all is hunky dory. This way, a fully auto-scheduled period end procedure is getting closer to the possibles... whenever there's a minutes, look in, have a view of what has and has not happened in proper, and walk away (except, crunching addicts wont ;o)
Dunn and Dusted, yeah right, moved some script calls around, so now the graph axes are updated [when a test is passed], each time a Results fetch is done. Before, it only ran at period end, but with starting users, the graphing data has not found it's hi-low range yet, so now, in the test-case, the previous period hi was 130 result validated, but now we're not even done and already there are 137 valids. Up Y-Axis 1 went. ![]() Just wondered, what feature is not in there (If you don't know, explore ![]() |

Still having fun, developed code to vice the mini-graphs into submission... to not draw the line over the hi-low numbers of the 3 ranking metrics, auto adapted to the individuals' position in the greater good.

A little hackathon this morning as in Brexiteer land there's trouble with datemask conversions (Jean-Claude had a bloody difficult dinner with Theresa already, aligning the dates and objectives... like none ;), so instead of formula that 'compute' the screentips for the tool ribbon to say fetch: 281 @ 12:35:22 PM, and pray that the 'locale' set up is correctly knowing hh is hours and not uu or oo or ss the script now does the date translation internally, lets the datevalue loose on the appropriate screentip and whatever locale there is, it is in the way the user has setup the system language/locale, but since computers are in charge it will always be in the order of yymmdd hhmmss, for that is sortable from smallest to largest or the reverse
----------------------------------------![]() Thanks to the active tester who 'exposed' the weakness ![]() BTW, the base work has been done to allow calls to translations, so your screentips/pop-up boxes can be swahili if you want to, but need translators to do it for me... just a matrix of 12 x 26 of short and medium long texts up to about 750 characters, but that only for 1x26 fields... the rest is plain short such as "Tasks Retrieval" or "In Progress fetching". I know, goals of several bridges too far... not of the SMART type, but hey, moi can always daydream ![]() edit: screenshot of the effect of direct injection... though all three procedures ran at 12:06:11 UTC, only the In Progress with the new method got the 'latest' timestamp, the others still waiting for the refresh to take effect... that's ribbon tech. These are BTW the texts maximum sizes calling for translations into the home tongue. ![]() [Edit 3 times, last edit by SekeRob* at May 3, 2017 1:30:48 PM] |

A surprising benefit happened... RibbonGUI does not like any element to be of the formula type too much... it does though instantly respond to pure text strings, so when hitting the button to prepare for the nightly full Results Status fetch and the procedure injecting the latest state, the screentip presto pronto updated to proclaim
----------------------------------------'Results Status' extraction executes @ 02:06:11 AM but what's proper... Results Status or Result Statuses? (off to doing a rain dance... so I don't need to wash off the motor-vehicle and ponder on the meaning of sesquipedalian :O))) [Edit 1 times, last edit by SekeRob* at May 3, 2017 2:34:19 PM] |

No Rain today, instead a glorious sunset with wisps of cloud, the lining predicting bell tempo tomorrow... a handwash it was of the fossil fuel consuming wheels.
Concluded the conversion, and stumbled on what I stumbled on in past... VB you can format dates all you like, but the region/locale overrides the / by a -, so was again confirmed at http://stackoverflow.com/questions/8527723/formatsomedate-mm-dd-12-15-in-vba so guess, the GB occupants will be happy to have that piece knock into their submission. buona serata ![]() |

but what's proper... Results Status or Result Statuses? I believe the proper would be Result's Status if singular and Results' Status if plural. The apostrophe in these cases showing the use of the possessive. Cheers

Sgt.Joe, Merriam-Webster okayed the 'Statuses' i.e. Results Status (as it appears on the WCG website) or Result's Status as in the Status' Result or Result Statuses and your possessive all are fine... not wanna be a purist today ;O) ...
For there was a hallelujah moment. The newest tester kept walking into the fail wall, and had noted that the scripts go up in smoke after the Statusbar, which gives detail progress information, got stuck somewhere after 'Computing the API tab' and there it was... as hard-coded semicolon, where other environments use the comma as list-separator. The solution, oh how beautiful, is the workbook opening script now reads what the decimal, thousand and formula separators are in the regional lingo settings and write them to some variables and make the script use these, to note, that if you change the Regionals, the scripts will just adapt, so users, feel free, change it to your hearts content. A second issue was with dates/times... if the time is suffixed with AM/PM then the colon separators in 12:56:34 PM will be in a different spot from right to left or left to right then when having 1:56:34 ... a simple colonpos = InStr(1, timeinput, ":") stores where the first colon is and uses that to pick out the hours, minutes, seconds, always from the left as from that first colon everything else is at + 1, 2 long and + 4, 2 long and not stolper on :5 or :3 the catch the minutes and seconds. Oh so simple (when you know) ![]() |

Sgt.Joe, Merriam-Webster okayed the 'Statuses' I bow to Merriam-Webster. No need to be a purist when the meaning is clear. Cheers

:O)))... Merriam is not one to kid with.
Had good news from the last added testers, it's alive, things *seems* to work. Now the tool has these localizations to offer (with the Henry Ford rule applying to dates), list, formula, decimal, thousand separators will adapt to your system/office configuration. Locale Code HexDec. Wannah try the latest greatest, and get your country added... PM me at the Berkeley forums. TTYL |

Two features added to the tool
1) Instant selecting and graphing of metric totals, credit hr, efficiency, runtime/result and more by device and by project based on the results in archive, summarized by stats period. Click a netname and it instantly produces a sub-selection of project buttons a device contributed to for the viewed period, so the clicked host did crunch for fahv, fahb and scc1. As the massive dip in the centre graph indicates, something went wonk with the efficiency around the 4th of May. Project Performance Measurement by device 2) A consolidation of the daily project level totals by day histories. Still to get the pick list and to be convinced to consolidate by day, and not split by morning and nightly stats subs, the reason why the graph looks hack-saw, 2 data points for same project on same day [Graph's X-Axis already understands what I want ;O] Project Histories Double-click any value any of the tables and a detail 'drill' sheet will be generated to scan the 'what's wrong with that device' picture :O] Of course, the longer the tool has collected daily stats and results, the more telling the graphs become. ttyl ![]() |
