How to retrieve multiple TB's from caches

Hi

I have used TB Scanner to scan some TB's
Have added the TB codes using the Add Codes button on the TB Logger window
I only see the option to "Grab it (Not from a cache)" when multiple TB's are selected.
It would be nice to have a possibility to select "Grab from current cache" where the TB is grabbed from what ever cache it is placed in right now.
Hope it is possible to do or maybe there is an option already that I have overlooked?

Regards
Picht

The TB log types are standard Groundspeak log types that the API uses. There is already one to retrieve from a cache. Didn't that work?

That is not available when multiple TB's are selected. Or am I doing something wrong?

That log type requires a GC code. How did you open the TB logger? If opened from a cache, then it's known to the app and that log type shows. If opened from the drawer, there is no cache associated with the logger... I would have to re-design things to add a GC code field for entry so I can put that on a to-do list.

I would not fancy a field to put in a GC-code as it is to much work for every TB.

But when GO reads the information on each TB it also gets the information on what cache it is placed in. This information could be used to retrieve the TB from the current cache?

Yep therefore a "Grab from wherever the TB is" would be a nice feature.
Internally in GO if would test if the TB is in a cache and then grab from there or if not in a cache GO would use the greb fom (not a achahe) option
This would get the best and most accurate logs.

Just a really nice feature to have  :D
