Please let us know if you run into any trouble after updating.

Thanks! ]]> RE: Feature improvement request: Newly added Highlights should be enabled by default https://www.logfusion.ca/Discussions/View/feature-improvement-request-newly-added-highlights-should-be-enabled-by-default/?ID=c98c2266-fd32-40f4-adff-03e18731e3a5#2 Fri, 19 Aug 2016 20:06:56 GMT Binary Fortress Software https://www.logfusion.ca/Discussions/View/feature-improvement-request-newly-added-highlights-should-be-enabled-by-default/?ID=c98c2266-fd32-40f4-adff-03e18731e3a5#2 LogFusion Good question! I agree that they should be enabled automatically, and I think the only reason that we didn't do that, is because they're added in the Settings window, and after clicking OK, the log tab doesn't really have a way to know which rules are new. However, I'm sure it can be done with a bit more work, so I'll definitely add this to our feature request list :)

Why would I not want a manually added single highlight to be enabled right away?

Only after a colleague of mine reported the same confusion, I decided to add the requests here as well. ]]>
