Hi,

This occurred a few times to me, and I'm pretty sure I am not alone. Could somebody please send out a memo or something to anybody working on Mantis as bug fixers (not reporter status). Clearly not everybody knows how to use Mantis. I often get requests to give more information, yet everything is supplied _IF_ you click "Advanced View".

If a memo cannot be sent, then please consider updating Mantis to show Advanced View as the default view. Quite a few fields are hidden in Simple View and it seems vital debug information is lost because the bug fixers don't know or click on Advanced View.

Regards,
- Graeme -

And if one enters the report in the default view and then decides to switch to Advanced View he looses the whole text...
