Latest Updates

 I have made several improvements since the new version went live after Easter. You may be interested in the following.

• When viewing the overall results of a series on a small screen, such as a phone, the default is not to show a detailed table of the result of each boat in each race, but just to show the rank, sail number, boat details as in the series switches and net points in the series. Now there is a button to expand the display to show the full table just like on a full-size screen. That will inevitably involve some horizontal scrolling.
• If you are running back-to-back races and there are guest helms or crews, the system will remember the guest names from the previous race and suggest them for the next race. Also race officers can automatically preselect the competitors from the previous race on the same day.
• Tandem races now appear on the public calendar page. Users can click to see the results, just like base races.
• The default action has been changed when importing boats from a spreadsheet, Hal file or SailEvent. As before, users have the ability to change the action for each boat by means of drop-down lists on the preview page, but the preselected option varies.
  If the numerical sail number (what is written on the sail, excluding any letters) is not the same as that of any existing boat, the new-boat option is preselected.
  If there is a boat already in the boat register with this numerical sail number, there will be three options: ignore the new boat, update the existing boat, or add as a new boat. The preselected option will be as follows:
• If the complete sail number, including letters, of the boat being imported is the same as that of an existing boat, and they are of the same type, assume they are duplicates and preselect the ignore option.
• If the complete sail number of the boat being imported is the same as that of an existing boat, but the type of boat is different, preselect the new-boat option.
• If the complete sail number is different, albeit with the same numerical number, and the type of boat is the same, preselect the update option.
• If the complete sail number is different, albeit with the same numerical number, and the type of boat is different, preselect the new-boat option.
