Colin:
You just keep making it better.
As you know, I like the results in one large table. In your
newest version, I get this back. One minor request. You have
sorted the fleet names alphabeticaly, before they were in the same
order as the starts.
Is it possible to offer a chance to change the order that it prints
in or to use the start order as the default order for printing?

Yours

Hi John,

The best I can do in the short term is allow the list shown after
"Publish+Results" to have up/down buttons, would that be useful?

Colin,

As I can see your online, I wanted to get a little clarification on
30Sep 1.58. I apologize ahead of time if this not completely fleshed
out, as it is near 2:00A here, and I am just finishing up with work on
one of our larger regattas, the Mt Gay Grand Prix. Regardless, in
30Sep 1.58, the addition of the capacity to define starts is great I
read the threads on the "and" and "or" statements as well as your
feedback that this could be expanded to an unlimited amount, again
great flexibility. What seems counter intuitive, however, is that
scoring is seemingly still limited to one parameter (i.e fleet, class,
etc.) My impression was that in 1.58 Sailwave could have user define
multi-parameter scoring. For example by fleet (i.e. Optimist) and by
Note (i.e. Age group), or any number of parameters

In this example all the Optimists start together and are defined as
such, but then I want to narrow the results, similar to the prize
function, but with compete and more flexible results and publishing
capabilities.

This is not a capability that is super critical for me, but I can see
that it would broadly expand Sailwave capabilities.

···

On the esthetics and wish list: 1) User definable Competitor List parsing (i.e. as before with Fleets or any other parameter) and resultant Results publication with said
parsing.

2) I do not use them, but our Cruising Races use Pursuit starts, this
would be a nice functionality.

3) More flexibility with Publishing abilities, editing code to plug in
a few pieces of graphics is a time waster, perhaps I need to get up to
speed on templates, and their use, if you have any recommended
resources for this, much appreciated.

Colin, bottom line it is the most flexible Race Management software
out there, and your constant work to progress and evolve it only makes
it better than anything else. Thanks for all your efforts.

Best regards,

-Doug Gordon

That would be very useful.
