Hi Bill, Your latest message aggregator works perfectly, both in the highlight-last and list-based modes. WSJTX now does all that I want, in terms of callsign highlighting. I used the new message to highlight the countries not worked this year, and improved my DX Marathon score significantly in

Thank you very much, Bill! You work very fast. I applied your patch, and the code worked perfectly. I am sure that there will be developers who will take full advantage of the callsign color list, and those who will use the Highlight Last mode to have more control. The reason why I want to high

Hi Bill, I applied your patch to WSJT-X and changed my UDP server to send two QColor parameters, everything works fine. However, there are a few issues due to storing the list of highlighted calls. 1. Some developers may prefer to highlight only the senders' callsigns, or at least use differen

Hi Bill, The patch utility crashes when trying to apply this patch. Do I need to specify some extra command line switches? Maybe you could create a branch with your changes that I would check out instead? 73 Alex VE3NEA On 2018-03-25 18:52, Bill Somerville wrote: Hi Alex, I have added a f

Hi Alex, I have added a few enhancements to your proposed patch: https://www.dropbox.com/s/7slm4oypbc5g8ks/highlight.diff?dl=0 this extends the UDP message to include the foreground colour as well as the background colour. The colours are passed as QColor format fields which are a little more

Hi Saku, Your logger knows a lot about the callsigns it displays. Once my changes are merged, cqrlog will be able to share some of this knowledge with WSJT-X so that the operator can see your colors directly in the Band Activity panel. You can use my TWsjtxListener class if you want, I hope it

This would be a big help to have callsigns color coded, would it also be possible to code in filters where some messages are not shown such as other on going qso`s that are not necessary to view and even stations that have been worked B4. This would de-clutter busy screens that have so many dec

Hi Bill, Thank you for a link to your message aggregator. I will take a closer look at it tonight, it looks like it includes a useful piece of code for working with the wsjt-x messages. I included the Delphi project only as a testing tool for the new feature in wsjt-x, so please ignore it if
