[Dx4win] INSERT > HOLDING ?

[John Shaw]

Well it does keep scrolling until the highlighted spot with the bold black
lines is the top line on you screen but it holds at that and the new spots
coming in don't bother it, unless the line you are looking at is the very
top line in the scroll back buffer then it gets dumped (FIFO) as a new spot
comes in but you still stay at the same position.  If you want more scroll
back history then you will have to increase that in the preferences under
packet 2.

With this ROS Mode thing flooding the system with un necessary spots the
time line for our scroll back capability is going to be shorter without
larger buffers.

Other than look at my "Gee Wiz" latest toy can any one see any benefit in
these ROS spots.  I need a ROS filter.

Thanks for your explanation John.
I tought that if i hit the insert key in the DX spots window i could
"freeze" that window from being updated every time a new spot was entered.
Now when i am scrolling back to older spots in that window (even with the
insert key holding function active) the lines move back downwards to the
most recent spot !
I want this window to freeze at the spot i am looking for.

Greetings and take care,
Theo ON4ATW
