Tweaks for COM-Port List #19

Closed Seahawk240 closed 3 years ago

Seahawk240 commented 3 years ago

Following the idea of @Discman777 I gonna implement the following tweak to the Com Port List:

Quote:

  1. When adding a Connection, can you default the COM port away from COM1? As COM1 is the motherboard’s and is never the desired choice. Perhaps defaulting to the second available COM?

Okay changed the defaults on that.

SOLUTION: -When Adding a Connection:

  1. If there is more than one COM-Port available take the second one
  2. If only one is available choose the first COM-Port
  3. If no COM-Port is available keep it blank (Not tested, don't know how; probably never happens so I don't mind for now)

-When Refreshing COM-Ports:

  1. If the last selected is still available use this
  2. If 1. Fails same behaviour as described above.

ANYWAY: Thanks again to @Discman777 for the idea!

Greetings Matthias

Tested Release 1.1. COM port is now defaulting to second port. Thanks for implementing this. Joe
