Rinderlee high point Discard formating ?

Imported from Yahoo
1

Sorry if this is a repeat question. I seem to remember the question
but can't find the post with the search.

I can't get the formating of discards to work in Rinderlee High Point
scoring. We want 4 regattas to count out of 10 possible events. The
NETT calculation is correct but the Discard score is not struck through
or bracketed as before (last year's version).

The discard formating works fine for a normal regatta.

Bug or oversight on my part??

Also... Anybody know where the 12 hour or 24 hour time format setting
button is now hiding. Could not find it to save my A%% this weekend.

Thanks
Mark

Mark,

answer last part first - there is no option for setting 12 & 24 hour format all times are presumed to be 24-clock; Note - that if you enter a start time of say 140000 and then enter the finish time as 043921(meaning 163921) Sailwave assumes that the race elapsed time is 143921 , i.e. the race has gone through midnight!

Regards to discard formatting and scoring codes formatting have you checked what is set in global options. I seem to recall that strike through is not set by default. I prefer to use brackets rather than strike through as it is much easier to see if a 4, 8 or 9 are being discarded.

Kind regards,

Huw

I think it's a bug. I had checked or unchecked the strike through
formating button. Neither the sail wave spreadsheet or the publish
HTML indicate which race is tossed for the discard (stikethough or
brackets... even though the nett calclulation is correct. (no
problems with a low point scoring scheme.)

see sailor two in this Chipstead file... (my mistake... not Rinderlee
scoring. 5 sailed... keeping 4.

Mark,

Sorry can’t help with the memory :wink: I can’t remember if there was such a feature as I have always used 24-hr format.

Ummm. se what you mean. Care to send me the Sailwave file as I have a series which has 3 different scoring profiles in Bonus Point, CHIPS & Appendix A and I see discards shown in my format using brackets!

FYI - I am using build 11

Kind regards,

Huw

Mark,

Can you take a look under View on the menu bar and see if you have a
tick beside ‘Hide discard formatting’? If so click ‘Hide discard
formatting’ and I think you will see the races that being discarded are
now marked Kind regards,
Huw
