Test Thread for Duenna Posts

Are you attaching the flightlog_XX_XX_XX jpg via manage attachments? Your Duenna Version looks correct.

When I go into the output folder, the jpg's are just as I attached them here. The jpg is not in a combined state like everything I'm seeing here. The main tracking map is one, the google map is one and the flight log is separate. . . .and yes, I always use "manage attachments" to post images, etc.
 
Ed (?),

Please open up the FlightLog_00-52-51.TXT textfile. (This should flash up on your screen when you have finished your flight.) Scroll down to the bottom to find the following text:

Validation-Files:
K:\Simple Drive\Flightsim_Stuff\RTW-Duenna\OUTPUT\2009-10-20\FlightLog_00-52-51.JPG
K:\Simple Drive\Flightsim_Stuff\RTW-Duenna\OUTPUT\2009-10-20\FlightLog_00-52-51.TXT
(just copy the above path+files into your forum-attachment field.)

When you add attachments, you copy first the "K:\Simple Drive...FlightLog_00-52-51.JPG" text into the box next to the first "Browse" button.

Then copy the "K:\Simple Drive....FlightLog_00-52-51.TXT" text into the second box. Finally hit the "Upload" button on the right.

Hope this helps,
Mike
 
You can copy the link at the bottom of the text file when it opens for the jpg, and paste it in the Browse window. Then copy the txt link under the jpg link and paste it in the second Browse slot, then upload.

It won't allow me to do that guys. When I click on the first browse button it wants to open something, I go to that text file and highlite the jpg text line and it pastes it into the slot, then I do the same for the text file link and when I go back to check what I've loaded it only loads the text file, not the jpg. I should have experimented with this a long time ago.

Simply put, the browse function "will not" allow me to just cut and paste anything, it wants to "open". When I open the log, scroll to the bottom and highlite the jpg line, I have to click open and something is pasted into the frist browser slot, but when I'm finished, it only loads the text file, not the jpg. Sorry. You guys have obviously done this for ages and it's no big deal, but it is simply not working.
 
This is a little squirrely on my system. Yours too?

Highlight the first location (the *.jpg file) in the Duenna textfile line and copy it.
Go "Manage Attachements" and to the "Browse" box and click it.
You will get a searching box--click and paste the location of your jpg file into the file name box and click "Open."
Then repeat for the Duenna *.txt file. Or, perhaps easier, simply click on the next "Browse" box and it should default to the folder you just visited.

Try this out and let us know.

Yep, and as soon as I do that it tells me it can't find that file.

I'm going to continue to try to get this to work as I fly right now. However, if I'm unable to get it corrected, then I'll need a decision from the governing body here as to whether or not, posting as I did with the test flight is going to count. If not, then there's no reason for me to continue any further flights. I don't have a problem with that really, I just need to know if my flying will count for anything beyond killing an otherwise boring day, lol.
Thanks Mike.
 
Maybe?

Hey falcon409,

You can hunt them down after the manage attachments window opens by browsing right to them and double clicking the file in the browser window.

After they populate the fields in the upload widow hit the upload key and the close the window.

Upload screenshots the same way. :jump:

Best,
 
Ed,

For this leg, go ahead and post your Duenna authentication as best you can. (The textfile is the most important--the jpg is mainly for race followers.)

It'll be better when things start working smoothly.

Mike
 
The problem seems to be that while I can double click on a lot of things and get them into the browser window. . . .those two lines of text simply will not transfer to the slot next to the browse buttons. If it would allow me to cut and paste that info, it would be simple, but clicking either the browse button or the slot next to it opens a search function and from then on it will only accept the path to that log file and not the highlighted text inside it.
 
You should be able to highlight each of the two lines at the bottom of the text file (one at a time), right mouse click on the highlighted line, select copy, then right click in the Browse slot and select paste into the Browse slot. ( or control+V to paste)

YOu should not have to click browse.

Ok, I can highlite the line, but right clicking on it does nothing. . .I don't get the option to copy. I tried highlighting and then control+C and then going to the slot and pasting, but that does not work.

For whatever reason. . .what everyone else finds common place. . .is foreign to my computer, lol. I've used the Manage attachments system for a long time and it's quite simple, but taking what amounts to a line of text and cutting and pasting it into those slots appears to be something I am unable to perform for whatever reason. It does not work.

This, along with very poor planning on my part has resulted in my dropping out of the race. This is not the place for me at this time.

Thanks for your help and enjoy the race.:ernae:
 
Just testing my Duenna , not used it since Evita :icon_lol: . Just a note , I have a desktop shortcut to my output folder so is nice and easy to just open required jpg and text folder . just double click to files and upload
 
Nope,
Nothing I do will allow me to add the necessary lines to the browse slots. Sorry guys. I know when it's a very simple process for you it's inconceivable that it can't be done, but on my system it doesn't work.
 
Hi , just for now, forget about adding lines , can you navigate to the folder where the Duennas are stored . It should look something like this . If you can , can you browse to this folder and double-click the file or jpg you need ? Sorry Falcon after reading the whole post I see you are in the right place :) But the Map uploaded is in a "gif" format not a .jpg

You're EST, I'm CST, so let's say 10:00am your time. Are you using the TS server that was posted here earlier for the Race Comm?

That will work just fine,,,,I'll "see" you then. We can go to one of the Conference Rooms if anyone is flying.
