Editing on the log

On Pro, you can correct a log where you read it: click the text, change the value, and the log redraws. On other plans the same card shows the values, read only.

Open the edit card#

With Pick chosen on the toolbar (V), point at the log: what can be opened gets a dashed outline. Click a description, a sample, a table cell or a header box to open the Edit card beside it.

What it is made from#

The card lists the fields the clicked text is built from, in the table editor's order, each with the table editor's own input. Required fields have an asterisk and key fields a key.

• Other fields opens the rest of the row's fields, the ones the log doesn't draw.
• A field from another of the location's tables (pit stability, say) can be changed here when that table has a single row; otherwise the card says how many rows it has and to change it in the table editor.
• Text that comes from the location, the project, or is worked out from rows says so, and isn't edited here.

Save#

A note shows while there are changes: they change the data itself, and are recorded in the row's history. Press Save to data (or Enter in a one-line box); Esc drops the changes. The log redraws with the new value, which pulses until it arrives.

From the card you can also choose Comment on this, or Flag a data row (see Checks and flags).
