Publishing individual series from an overall season file

Imported from Yahoo

I’m wondering if there’s a way to have one overall season file made up of four series where I can publish just a series and the points from that series as needed. I have an overall season file now and I am able to publish selected races as needed but I need to find a way to publish the selected points and competitors as well. Thanks, Jeff

Hi Jeff,

  Unfortunately there is no way to do what you want directly in

Sailwave. Sailwave does not have functionality to score a
sub-series using a set of specified races.

  There are a couple of ways of doing what you would like, i.e. 4

individual series overall results.

  Seeing as you have a Sailwave with your 4 series in, the way I

would do things is to make 4 copies of the file you have naming
the 4 series as appropriate. Then for each of the series delete
the races that are not part of that series and score the series.
You then have to decide if some competitors need deleting as well
if they did not compete in the series in question.

  My preferred way of doing this would be to have separate Sailwave

files for each of the 4 series to start with and then merge into a
single file for overall season file.

Hope this helps kind regards,

Huw

Thanks Huw, that’s what I’m doing now. Sailwave doesn’t have an Undo feature, does it, or maybe I’m missing it? If so that’s really inconvenient in my opinion.

I used a git repo to branch the master (overall series) into a selected series, where I deleted the other races and published that. Then I switched back to the master and carried on. If I had to make any corrections, I would edit the master and then branch it again for the selected series and republish. It’s a bit complicated but all the corrections and updates are made at the source.

Hi Jeff,

  Wow you are much more advanced than me, although I have thought

of using something like Git for tracking changes.

  Unfortunately Sailwave does not have an undo feature, so you have

not missed anything. I am not the coder but I would expect adding
such functionality would be a challenge. I just use Dropbox and
its history feature has saved me on several occasions. I also use
pCloud.

Kind regards,

Huw
