Scoring request

Colin,

In the Scoring Systems>Edit>Race Scoring>Calculations dialog, we may
specify the number of decimal places for rounding scores. While I would
typically want to round to one or two places, I would like to ONLY see
these decimal places when they are needed. In other words, can we do
away with the '.0' after each typical whole number score? This would
make for a much cleaner-looking results table.

An 'Omit zero decimals' check-box would do it!

Thanks,
Kett

Hi Kett,

Sailwave used to do that automatically, but people got consfused betwen
points and place and didn't realise which they were looking at. the .0 is
deliberate to ram home the point(sco) that you're looking at points and have
published points on the paperwork - places can be subtley different in RDG
situations and some competitors would look at the ploints thinking there
were places...

However, it is an easy change and I can put a warning on it so I don't see
why not.

Regards,
Colin
