Two suggestions and a bug - 01/13/04 02:05 PM

Some suggestions for MultiPing:

* Smaller ping interval, 0.01 s would be great.
* Ability to export a plot as a picture in regular intervals, just like in PingPlotter.

And a little bug: When including samples out of range (it easily happens when you increase the “Samples to include” value and have samples marked near the end of the plot) an evil dialog popups which says “Can’t get a time for a sample that’s not been done yet!”

Thanks for the feedback.

First the ability to have higher frequency already exists - just enter the time manually (ie: 0.01 seconds). Note that 10ms (ie: 0.01 seconds) is the effective minimum time that can be used as Windows timer resolution doesn't go below this (at least not under Windows 2000 or Windows XP where we've done the most testing on really low ping intervals).

We're evaluating what capabilities to include in MultiPing with respect to saving images and/or data. We appreciate your feedback on the fact that you need this.

Also, thanks for the bug report.

Tested just that but it didn't work. Then i tested 0,01 (with comma that we use here in Sweden) instead of 0.01 and it works ok. Think its some sort of windows locale setting then. Thanks anyway!
