All / CW / Phone / Digital, stacked on top of the worked/confirmed filter. The
question an operator actually has — which DXCC entities have I worked on CW but
not confirmed on CW — needs both at once; answering only one of them is what
sends people to a spreadsheet.
References carried bands but not modes, so the award computation now aggregates
mode CLASSES per reference, worked and confirmed separately. Classes, not ADIF
modes: nobody chasing CW cares whether the digital side was FT8 or RTTY, and a
list of twenty mode names would not answer the question. An unrecognised mode
counts as data rather than as nothing, so a new digital mode does not vanish
from the filter the day it appears.
Two rules the filter needs to be honest:
- Not-confirmed means not confirmed ON THIS MODE. An entity worked on CW and
confirmed on SSB is still a CW entity to chase, and that is exactly what the
filter is for.
- "Not worked" plus a mode is a contradiction — an unworked reference has no
mode — so the mode filter stands aside there instead of emptying the list.
The sort choice is now written through writeUiPref and both keys are registered
as portable, so they travel with a copied data/ folder like every other UI
preference.
Registering them is the part that matters: writeUiPref stores to the DB, but
only keys on the portable list are read BACK at startup. A key written and never
restored looks exactly like one that was never saved — which is what would have
happened here.
The grey-line toggle had the same gap. It called writeUiPref from the day it was
written but was never added to the list, so it came back off on the next launch.
Found while adding the award keys beside it.
Reference stays the default: that is how award lists are published and how a
paper list is read. Description answers the other question an operator actually
has — "have I worked anything in Alicante" — which reference order scatters
across eight thousand rows.
Sorted where the filtered list is built, so the grid and list views inherit it
rather than each growing its own copy that could disagree.
localeCompare rather than a byte comparison, because these lists are Spanish,
French and Italian place names: "Ávila" belongs beside "Avilés", not after
"Zaragoza". References compare numerically for the same reason in reverse —
08019 must not sort between 0801 and 081.
