Start folding.

Post by adrianxw »

If I click "Stop folding", it completes the work unit, and stops. Fine, that is what I wanted it to do. What then happens when I am ready for it to start again, I do..... well.... what do I do? The stop folding poke point is still there, okay, but that is not what I want now. I can refresh the page, great, it refreshes, but does not alter the poke point.

Okay, when I click stop folding, it finishes the work unit then stops. This morning, and this is not the first time I have had this happen, I started my machine, and, ignoring the fact I have told it to stop, it downloaded a new work unit, which is still running now. The stop function does not appear to be saved across invocations.

You mean Finish?
Finish is not sticky in fah v7.

Manually pause after it finishes and uploads.
Or add client option pause-on-start true

Stop Folding is the text on the poke point. Where do I add client options, sounds more like what I want.

Sys tray fah > Advanced Control is FAHControl
The configure window will have a client options tab
Add option
name: pause-on-start
value: true
Use lower case.

Good, a bit of hunting around, but I found a place to enter the item and its value. Hopefully that will be working.
