RE: NEW version 5.91
Hi Fulvio,

Yes you are right about the DXCC column messing up when narrowing the eQSL column...I want you all to understand that when I'm implementing new functions I always want to add an option so that users can enabled or disabled it. But many times this is not as easy as you may think. In case of the DX message window as it's programmed it's very complicated to do many things. Keep in mind that the "simple" thing of writing the header text in vertical (as it is in the statistic columns or Lotw and eQSL) it was a nightmare to do this!!! for the user's view may seem very easy but believe me, I have never seen something so complicated to understand in the code to simply write a text vertical. It must be programmed (it's not like Microsfot Word) and it's not intuitive or easy to understand (at least for me and my Delphi code skills). And this is only a simple thing from the user's view... Honestly I don't know if in a future version I will be able to add an option to enable/disable these columns... every little thing I'm adding into Swisslog needs many many hours.

But I'm very amazed that for this small thing (only some milimeters of new space in the DX message window) you prefer to use version 5.9d instead of the new version where it's full of important corrections (database compression, MyQTH error...) as well as updated statistics, etc. I know I can't make everybody happy but I really think it's very difficult to make YOU happy with Swisslog.. Sad I'm very sorry to hear that but obviously you are free to do what it's best for you. I'm trying to do the best for everybody and I feel a bit sad when for a simple thing like this one user prefer to not update to the last version when it's full of new improvements. Now I understand how frustrated felt Walter sometimes when he received some user's feedback when we talked about Swisslog in the past. However thank you for suggestions and your message. Just I wanted to explain that unfortunately I'm not able to implement all things I want.
