we should be doing that with the solutions we build for students....
I think it'll be really hard to close that loophole
unfortunately if we don't invigilate it in a room under our control then its always going to be open
at present plom doesn't muck with the sources of your test - just the PDF, so it can only watermark it can't manipulate the text as you indicate
well.... akshually,... in principle you can generate your tests anyway you want and tell Plom what your version map is (Plom needs to know which versions of questions are in what paper).
What's the estimated lifespan for the qt-based GUI? I recall that there is a web interface in the works (courtesy of Forest and Nicholas?) so just wondering if it is still worthwhile to submit changes to the current interface, based on experiences using the manager recently
also: we can have more than one client! So I'd say patches welcome!
and guidance/advice if you want, but not tonight :)

Thanks, I'll keep that in mind :) (sorry, something odd is going on with my two gitter accounts..)
Is anybody familiar with the "selection" behaviour of QTableView?
much fun can ensue
what in particular are you wanting to know?
0.8.2 is ready to go, but a new setuptools 60.8.1 is out so I'll let that propagate a bit, planning to do 0.8.2 tomorrow morning
but big picture here:
Plom tools now try to verify SSL certificates
re: Philip's feature request about showing counts - is it a good idea to make these tab titles dynamic?
i notice some letters are underlined (potentially for keyboard switching, though it doesn't seem to work on my computer
anyway there's space next to the "Perform actions" button in each section to fit in some count
i kinda dislike dynamic titles... but that is just me. and i can be convinced to change my mind
I think it would be more efficient to see all of the counts "at a glance"
but i'm afraid of something obnoxious happening like underlining a parenthesis
underline: on windows and linux: this is alt- accessibility shortcuts. It might be "option" on a mac.
The underlining is set manually: "C&olin" makes alt-o a shortcut for Colin
I know this from Win 3.1 (!!) but maybe its even earlier
Gotcha - so I can keep the same underlining scheme if/when updating the titles then
i can see how to do this
a word of caution: we keep talking about whether work on Manager is "making a silk purse from a sow's ear"
anyway, happy to take accept improvements but just something to keep in mind
this should be a pretty quick change, just counting the number of rows in a table and displaying it
(this is only useful if it really gives an overview)
dangerous word
