Hello.
I would like to say that I’m quite dissapointed with how this works. I used beta 3 for a couple of days and went back to winbox2. Today I had to do something on a router from a different computer and quickly downloaded winbox from the website. So, I’ve launched w3 and :
-tried to connect via MAC, winbox stalled on downloading plugins (no progress, just “downloading plugins…”).
-second try downloaded, connected, after couple of changes, session drops. That might be ok since I changed LAN IP addresses. Winbox offered to reconnect, after clicking reconnect, program dies silently.
-above happened 2 or 3 times
I am worried that You produce network routers that are many many times more complicated than winbox, yet You fail to simply make that simplier thing work. Add to that the strange decision to push betas to everyone (yes I know I can download 2 from router, thank you) instead of just those, who are willing to test betas.
On the bright side, global inline and layout memory is very welcome.
Bump for lower minimum window height - they could be lower when there is only handful of items (often one).
And for me, there could be a opened-window-list somewhere. When a window is maximized and I need something from below, I have to either close or resize the maximized one, or F6 through every other window, to find the one I need.
Two problems I’ve run into today with Winbox 3 RC, both involving “Open in New Window”.
With “Open in New Window” checked, I tried to MAC-Winbox into a CRS125 running RouterOS v6.15 that I was directly connected to by Ethernet. Winbox showed the login attempt, and the successful login, and then spawned a second copy of the base Winbox window – giving me the login prompt again rather than completing the process of opening Winbox. This was consistently repeatable. When I cleared “Open in New Window”, logging in via MAC-Winbox worked as expected.
With “Open in New Window” checked, I tried to Winbox via IP into a MaxxWave (x86) running RouterOS v5.21. Winbox showed the login attempt, and the successful login, and then did nothing – it went back to the original login screen without spawning a new window. This was consistently repeatable. When I cleared “Open in New Window”, logging in via Winbox worked as expected.
Hello,
there is still hard to find any item in list of devices. For example, when there is about 1000 records:
name of router:
bla bla
..
bla bla
bobek - zavori
bla bla
..
bla bla
zavori - bobek
bla bla
…
When finding router with name “zavori”, I need to show only routers, that conains searched word (somewhere in the name). Not only highlight and scroll to first occurr. Existing search is only for few records
i still havent understand how is possible to sync with dropbox.
the folder that winbox3 settings are stored is C:\Users\xxxxxxx\AppData\Roaming\Mikrotik\Winbox
should we make a directory symbolic link to winbox folder to target in winbox?
Can1t save session with invalid characters for file name, like “:” containing in MAC. Only temp file will be created in winbox.exe containing folder, something like this: viwBEBC.tmp. Maybe RB SN will be better as default name.
Winbox 3rc1 crashed many times, without any errors and supout files. Debug log will be very useful!
When master password is enabled - last session address, password can be used after restarting app!
Steps of reproduction:
! open in new window opt. - enabled
! master password - created
! don`t enter master password after app start
some manipulations with app, like connecting to RB
enter master password and press ENTER on keyboard
Last focused button in app will be pressed instead of OK button.
Nice features in 3RC, but I have also an feature request.
If somebody works with scripts, it can be very uncomfortable, that the “Scripts”, and “Environment” are tabs on same GUI window.
So its impossible to see the list of scripts, and the Environments in same time.
I have to switch continuously between the two tabs.
Generaly solution, if it would be possible to make a new GUI window from each tab.
so this .cbx file is only for the addresses? or also for the views and sessions saved?
if not where is this file (sessions-views) ? so we can transfer it between home-work?
