NIG (NoteInfoGenerator)

[googlejaps]

I just downloaded NIG for the first time and was very surprised that it closed itself when I used the standard windows keycombination of CTRL-X to cut information.
I see that CTRL-X is linked to exit. I don't know if this has been discussed here, but IMHO this is not a very wise choise. ALT-F4 is exit in Windows, CTRL-X is cut. Can this be changed?

I haven't noticed this feature before, but I agree that it's not desirable that NIG suddenly closes when you only wanted to cut something (especially for users that have to wait over 10 minutes for NIG to start).

Yesterday I downloaded the version 1.71 of NIG.

...First question...

...Second question...

...Third question...

...Fourth question...

After a while I'll update this list:
First question: those messages don't appear any more (after a couple of times). Maybe, because I accepted a few times?
But I think with the next version it will be there again. Is it possible to avoid this at that time?

Second question:
The lines still appear with loading the Belgian codes, but this one:

Those messages (codes_belgium.txt) were shown with the previous version too, but this message (codes_france.txt) is new:

Ignored group Biggest Cities of France, line " ".

doesn't anymore.

But I've got two more questions now:

5.
When I ask for "Charts" (Statistics 21, Shift F9) I get an empty page (allthough the checkmark "Disable charts" is off).
The only text vissible is:

Charts

Generated 2009-01-29 03:42:02 (by NIG version 1.71)

How can I get these? (if it's only possible by using "Special Operations" "Simply Charts", Ctrl+I, why is it in the "Create Statistics"-menu too?)

6.
In January we got a new combination of : E/P
I've got 57 (all Trichets of course) of them right now, but NIG thinks, they are Duisenbergs.
I think, because they're filling up gaps in the serialnumbers: Those I've got all start with "P062" (my other "P06*" are P060 and P061: all G007--).
Maybe, you can let NIG recognize these as "Trichets"?

EDIT with 5:
I finally managed to get Charts visible:
You need to creat them first with "Special Operations" "Simply Charts", than choose "Seperate chart page (=chart report)" at "Placed On" (at the bottom of the box), and thirdly choose "Run Chart Report" on the right side.

I have got a problem with the location list:

I entered notes in two different German municipalities which share the same postal code. Now, in the main location list they are listed separately. But in the list of cities and municipalities of Germany all notes are assigned to only one of the municipalities. Is there an solution to this problem?

If details are needed: I entered the notes in Bad Schwartau and in Ratekau. In codes_germany.txt Bad Schwartau has the postal code 23611 and Ratekau has 23626. This is correct. However, a certain quarter of Ratekau (where I got the notes) also has the postal code 23611. I have entered two notes respectively in both 23611 Bad Schwartau and in 23611 Ratekau. In the list of cities and municipalities of Germany all four notes are assigned to Bad Schwartau (see link to my NIG stats in my signature).

Yes, there is a solution to this problem. I just have to add locationnames to postalcodes if one postalcode is in more than one municipality.
I haven't checked all postalcodes, so errors like 23611 can still occur. I will correct that in a new codes_germany in the near future.

Cool. Thanks for your answer!

Hello, I would like to know how to post all my reports on the web.
I mean, I would like to have a website similar to the user VERMEER

this is the link: http://us.share.geocities.com/vm4ebt/27 ... stics.html

Hi,

if you zip the _statistics-sub-folder from your nig-folder and mail it to ernie_hh@gmx.de, i put it on my webspace, so everybody can find it under http://euro.ernie.no-ip.info/users/

if you find a webspace somewhere else, you can mail me your url to the same adress and i link your page from there

(of course this option applys to everybody, for a update of the data simply do the same again)

Just find yourself a web hosting service and upload the HTML-files that NIG puts in the map xxxxx_statistics.
I use Yahoo! geocities.

the combination R/X for blue notes don't exist - http://simpsonspedia.net/ebt/98168_trivia.html

i got 2 notes today

[marty44]

yes, there are some new combinations...

time for NIG Update?

[R/J]

So for this year's new combinations we have (in no particular order and maybe not even complete):

E002/P
F002+003/S
R001/X (and probably 002 and up are to be expected as well)
H006/L
K003/T

And possibly there will be higher G codes as well this year. I believe they were going to print for 4 or 5 countries, including .

Maybe not completely ontopic, but interesting none the less.

And an on-topic edit:
The bar for Slovenia in the 'Notes by Country' section is white. So you cannot see it against the equally white background (half of the time).

[R/J]

Double post, but the other was some time ago.

I notice if I make the Note Analysis the T/Z and U/M combinations (the last two) do not show.
