i decided to leave the wavy line. trying to
satisfy conflicting requirements.
as it stands - the drop down has classes already in the series at
the top for quick selection. i find this useful.
the rest of the drop-down is from the rating file - limited to
those rating systems you have set up in the scoring system if you
have done so - again useful to not show Texel for .e.g when not
using it. But - this breaks the locator (typing letter - locate)
because of the double tired list - so leave the wavy line selector
there which can be used to get classes into the series for the
first time.
I could merge the drop-down so it not split into two but then
classes already in the list as not so visible - but you could
locate to them…
swings and roundabouts.
if you type something into the class box the rating is updated now
(that was the original bug) - and typing is often faster than
selecting…

Wavy line still there …
The search for ratings seems limited to the existing boatsnot the whole list of ratings. Relevant as search for scorpion
involves scrolling down to find class. Using wavy line would
have jumped to ‘S’ readily
Oh dear, more tweaks for next build

Ian, Jim at al,
uploaded another version 2.03 build 4 that is better. this is how the class drop down now works:- class already used in file, value class already used in file,value
class already used in file,value
etc ... spacer line class from rating file, value class from rating file, value class from rating file, value etc ... that way the classes already used in the series arethere for easy access at the top of the list and those
that have not been used can be selected by just
scrolling down.i've remove the wavy line selector all together.

eek!
Sorry Ian and Jim et al. It was a bug. Fixed now in2.03 build 3 on website.
When you type in a class and click/tab away or select aclass from the drop-down, the rating field auto updates
ok now. it uses existing competitors first (in case
you’ve tweaked the value in the rating files) and if not
found uses the rating files.you can also use the selector (wavey lines) to selectclasses that don’t exist in the series yet and it uses
the value from the item you selected.can't explain the "105" yet - i'll look later. batter me round the head a bit more next time... musthave been there a long time.

Colin,
I have been experiencingthe same problem for a while – Until I saw someone
else discussing how to find a solution, I had
thought it was just an inconvenience to live with!

I attach both the .blwfile and the Ratings file. One thing which
puzzles me about the log file is that it says it
has loaded 103 ratings, but there are rather more
than that in the file!
When I set up a newcompetitor, I use the drop-down list of classes in
the Competitor window, but to get the Handicap
field populated, I have to click on the wavy blue
line. The window to the Handicap file opens with
the right class selected, and when I click on OK,
the handicap field in the competitor window is
populated – so I think my problem is the same as
Jim’s.
I would be interested ifyou can suggest a way of getting back to having
the handicap field filled in automatically – I’m
sure I had that when I first started using
Sailwave!

Ian Day

jim, can you attach your sailwave file.
i agree you should have to connect each rating
by hand - the auto facility will do it for you
(or should) as long as the class names match
up of course…

ColinIan Frogley has been trying to help me but to no avail.. I have now downloaded version 2.03 build 2. I have deselected the connect to internet option. I have selected the auto set competitor ratings and RYA Portsmouth in Scoring System. I have put a ratings file into a new folder and linked to it from Global options. On opening a competitors details the ratings file has clearly been accessed as all the PY ratings are there. But they don't follow through to the competitors, to update the competitors' ratings I would have to do each one manually by clicking on the blue wave icon. No different from when I started.Log file below.ThanksJim22:31:05 CmdLineFile=C:\Users\Strothers\Desktop\Documents\Sailing\Results\Test folder\ent_spring1_2008.blw22:31:05 CmdLineOpenProforma=022:31:05 CmdLineOpenNew=022:31:05 CmdLineShear=022:31:05 CmdRunFromRoot=022:31:05 SailwaveVersion=2.03 build 222:31:05 ScreenWidth=136622:31:05 ScreenHeight=76822:31:05 WindowsVersion=6.0.600222:31:05 WindowsUser=Strothers22:31:05 InstalledOn=05/17/11 19:03:4922:31:05 InstalledBy=Strothers22:31:05 ProgramFolder=C:\Program Files\Sailwave22:31:05 StartInFolder=C:\Users\Strothers\Desktop\Documents22:31:05 TempFileFolder=C:\Users\Strothers\AppData\Local\Temp22:31:05 MyDocsFolder=C:\Users\Strothers\Desktop\Documents22:31:05 DataFolder=C:\ProgramData\Sailwave22:31:05 CommandLine= open="C:\Users\Strothers\Desktop\Documents\Sailing\Results\Test folder\ent_spring1_2008.blw"22:31:05 Loaded 9 publishing templates22:31:06 Loading ratings from C:\Users\Strothers\Desktop\Documents\Sailing\Results\Sailwave ratings\22:31:06 Loaded 81 ratings22:31:07 Loaded 9 publishing templates-------------------------------------!- [http://www.yachtsandyachting.com/](http://www.yachtsandyachting.com/) -!- [http://www.sailing.org/](http://www.sailing.org/) -!- [http://www.sailwave.com/](http://www.sailwave.com/) -!- On-Line Sailwave help...http://sailwave.com/help/HTML ~ Mark Townsend's Sailwave User Guide is available from [http://www.abyc.org/upload/Sailwave_ABYC_User_Guide.pdf](http://www.abyc.org/upload/Sailwave_ABYC_User_Guide.pdf) ~ Convert to daily digest of emails send blank email to sailwave-digest@yahoogroups.com ~ To unsubscribe from the SUG please send blank email to sailwave-unsubscribe@yahoogroups.com Yahoo!
