Windows layout is not stored - openning with “load previous session” does not work (sure I pressed “exit” button before).
The starting on top of the log should be changed in order to behave in the same manner as version 2.
Trying the version 3.0b2 I lost the saved sessions - layouts that till now worked with version 2.
Windows cannot be shrinked - lowered the height (e.g. “interfaces” window cannot be shrinked to display less lines).
And pros:
Opening in new window is cool!
Reconnect window is cool, but “more…” button is misleading, I expected more options but I lost possibility to reconnect… Does it have timeout when the reconnect window automatically closes?
I would love the possibility to create a ‘master default’ setting ..where,e.g., relevant (custom) firewall columns are already and ever showed!!
..and many others possible usefull customizations on many other forms.. simply with a better/custom default (as I’m used to with putty ..for example)
current default for firewall columns is the most evident cause of my insomnia
I would really like an global option for “Inline comments” (like “Hide passwords”)… Even inline comments checked by default in all tables.
The comments on their own line disrupting all the nice tables are annoying.
Yes and no - I like a mix so definitely shouldn’t remove the ability for certain tables to have certain options.
The comments can make good ‘Headings’ in the sense of say a Firewall, you might have 2-10 rules per ‘goal’ you are achieving, placing a comment on the top of the block of rules gives a nice heading and separates the rules out.
Absolutely agree!!
Firewall rules without proper comments and ‘separate sections(*)’ would make me crazy
(*) I’m used to create a chain with dummy rules (always disabled) to store comments, in this way I can move them easily and even create section separators with a dummy rule with full row comment like “;; =====[ my_label ]============================================”
I have one issue:
I had open few windows of winbox and I was upgrading RBs,
and sometimes some RB start reconnecting but after login winbox crash without any message (close).
Please, make login window to be resizeable to a bit smaller height. Its height is really big.
Also I think that Note and Group text boxes isn’t necessary on the main login window here. They can be entered in a dialog boxes while saving, that way you can implement an Edit button if needed. Login window will be more clear then. Just IMHO.
Request- To pull up a no frills terminal window from winbox.
Justify- I’ve been teaching myself RouterOS for a couple of years now and often open up two instances of Winbox. One for terminal and one to see changes.
Result- Fewer input strokes to reach terminal through Winbox.
Many apologies if I’ve missed something or this has been dealt with!
When you click “New Terminal” in Winbox, there’s a separate window for terminal being opened, and at the same time, you can still open up Winbox windows, and do whatever it is you want. So you should be able to see it all in the same Winbox instance.
