Well, you know that the best engineer are the laziest engineers; They always finds the easiest way....

.....and if you take the idea even further .......<BR>
<BR>
The .blw file could also include other information such as starts, flight colours + all the other<BR>
things I cannot think of now.<BR>
This file could then be made available on the web site for users to down load!<BR>
The idea is limitless as it can cover all types of races & solves the problems of new users (& those<BR>
of us who have a bad memory!!) who have difficulty with basics such as how to set up a General<BR>
Handicap with multiple starts but & all finishers given a clock time .......<BR>
<BR>
Good idea Martin<BR>

Hi!<BR>
Think Ralph is into something here.<BR>
<BR>
First thing I toght of was "Greate, then I can make defalt files save them and make them RO, and<BR>
later use them as a starting point for that kind of scoring." Lets say I make a .blw file called<BR>
Optimist-Flights.blw, and make it RO.....<BR>
<BR>
regards!<BR>

Hi Colin<BR><BR>
<BR><BR>
"I think the inheritance is OTT as it stands "<BR><BR>
After 2 secs of panicking as to why all the options were greyed out, I liked it!!<BR><BR>
<BR><BR>

From the very early days, SW has always been easy to use if you just go through each menu/option<BR>

&<BR><BR>

ask yourself if it needs changing. The scoring system inherit method is really great because if<BR>

you<BR><BR>

start with a good My App A, you are unlikely to transfer bad practices/ideas to other regattas.<BR><BR>
<BR><BR>
<BR><BR>

Hi Ralph,<BR><BR>
<BR><BR>
Yes, the scoring systems are local to each series. There will be a<BR><BR>
library/load/save facility for them (and everything else) but it's not there<BR><BR>
yet. NB the scope rules are:-<BR><BR>
<BR><BR>
1. Everything defined in Setup+GlobalOptions is common to all series.<BR><BR>
2. Everything else is series-specific, (hence the grouping in the setup<BR><BR>
menu).<BR><BR>
<BR><BR>
I think the inheritance is OTT as it stands, scoring systems that are value<BR><BR>
specific should inherit but the main list should probably be independent for<BR><BR>
clarity. I also think the value specific scoring systems should be<BR><BR>
available as a list 'inside' the host system, again for clarity about what's<BR><BR>
happening. It's a bit too much of a free-4-all at present. I know I get<BR><BR>
confused which would tend to imply the UI is not very good at the moment.<BR><BR>
<BR><BR>

<BR><BR>
Just testing 1.74<BR><BR>
<BR><BR>
Really like the scoring system (inherit) options to be able to<BR><BR>
create a bespoke scoring system from<BR><BR>
a 'sound' base.<BR><BR>
Was a bit thrown when my bespoke system did not show in the<BR><BR>
series data on the left until I learnt<BR><BR>
that it changes after the first time you score the series.<BR><BR>
<BR><BR>
Creating a new series however does not list my bespoke scoring<BR><BR>
system as an alternative to My App A.<BR><BR>
<BR><BR>
I can live with copying the file from the last time I used the<BR><BR>
bespoke system but it would be nice<BR><BR>
if I did not need to delete all the previous regatta data.<BR><BR>
<BR><BR>
<BR><BR>
