3Downvoted. This does not answer the question. @pandemonium provided the correct answer to the specific question. It would be appropriate to give that user the Answer credit.– TonyGCommented Sep 29, 2017 at 2:13

1@TonyG You don't seem to have read the question.– Jamie KitsonCommented Jan 30, 2018 at 10:41

1The original incorrect response was posted in 2015. In 9/17 I downvoted that. By that time @Pandemonium had posted the correct answer, but the OP hasn't been back to fix the accepted answer. Note that in 12/17 Chin then edited his answer to be the correct one, having seen the correct answer by Pandemonium. Now, I dunno whether to stand by my downvote because this answer was credited incorrectly, and perhaps Chin is still taking credit for what was originally a wrong answer, or if I should remove the downvote because in good spirit Chin corrected himself. Leaving it until clarified.– TonyGCommented Jan 30, 2018 at 15:57

@TonyG, I am in complete agreement with you. It seems to be rather inappropriate for this answer to be modified years later to include the answer from Pandemonium which obviously works much better. From my perspective, that seems to be unprofessional at best, and it borders on being both manipulative and deceptive.– Run5kCommented Mar 18, 2018 at 22:43

How to Tag
A tag is a keyword or label that categorizes your question with other, similar questions. Choose one or more (up to 5) tags that will help answerers to find and interpret your question.
- complete the sentence: my question is about...
- use tags that describe things or concepts that are essential, not incidental to your question
- favor using existing popular tags
- read the descriptions that appear below the tag
If your question is primarily about a topic for which you can't find a tag:
- combine multiple words into single-words with hyphens (e.g. windows-7), up to a maximum of 35 characters
- creating new tags is a privilege; if you can't yet create a tag you need, then post this question without it, then ask the community to create it for you
