File browser is not updating?

[RahmanM]

Hi,

This is absolutely great tool. Excellent to parse the log file at a glance. Only issue I have found is that the File Browser is not showing new files that are added after I have started the Monkey Log Viewer. Am I missing something? Any tricks? Now I have to close the Monkey Log Viewer and open it again to see new files.

Regards,

rahman

Hi @RahmanM,

This project is no longer maintained. I'm afraid say to that the primary reason is that i don't have a windows pc to develop this project. The way i see it, It's not neat, but there's a way. The log viewer supports "drag & drop". If you keep open the file explorer that OS offers, you can use drag & drop a new file into the log viewer. I hope it helps you.

Thank you.

Hi @RahmanM , @jungilhan ,
You can use QFileSystemModel to replace QDirModel. Although I have checked the information and found that QDirModel also supports automatic refresh, it is not the case in my environment. However, QFileSystemModel is effective and we can also inherit the QFileSystemModel class to customize the model. Programming is really enjoyable, especially if the code runs according to the thought process. It's really cool!
