The changes I'm proposing wouldn't necessairly effect current users it they did want to use them. Basically three ideas:
1. When one writes a reply to a message in the message box,BOTH the original message AND the reply could (but don't have to) be saved to Past Encounters via the existing save to chart option (as far as I can tell, only the original message, not the reply can easily be saved to the chart now)
2. Allow quicker access to "Tracked Data" via an icon in "Past Encounters", and via a new tab added to the existing upper right tabs in in "Current Encouter"
3. Does anyone else think the font size in "Past Encountes" could stand to be enlarged a bit, and that perhaps by Bolding the date and Title of each encounter in the "past Encunters" field (when displaying the actual contents of all past encounters,) that it would become easier to quickly distinguish between different dated entries if the Date and Tiltle were in Bold?
