Help Me / Re: my load button stopped working
« on: April 17, 2013, 07:28:24 AM »
I just wish there was a way for you to get your preferences file back.

Offtopic, but one of the advantages of using dropbox as a datastore is that it saves 30 days worth of revisions to all files. So that if I accidentally delete something or make a change that I can't remember what I did, I can get back the previous version.

Is there a way to change the default location of preferences so that I could store that on dropbox as well?

Help Me / Re: Central Database & More ?
« on: April 10, 2013, 02:18:36 AM »
What if you had an option to re-read in the entire database before writing to it? That way, you'd incorporate any changes that some other side may have made before you write out something new.

Templates, Layouts and Sounds / Re: Background Image Blinks
« on: April 08, 2013, 07:07:26 PM »
Understood and no problem.  I usually request a backup because it's the easiest way to reproduce someone's "environment".  Having your specific environment greatly increases the chance that I'll be able to reproduce the issue.  But privacy is important to me, too, so no worries if you'd rather not send that data.  Just send the layout and any associated image files (so you should probably use the layout's Export feature, as it will package it all up in a ZIP file for you).

Well, the good news is that I can't recreate the problem. I swear it was happening and I haven't upgraded since it happened. But I can't recreate it. And I've tried every thing I did before. But the error steadfastly refuses to show itself.

Which is, of course, actually good news.

Templates, Layouts and Sounds / Re: Bills Poker Room Final

I really like your layout. Would love to steal it, but my photoshop skills are not up to the task of changing the name on the background image.

Any chance you'd post those BG images w/o the "Bill's Poker Room" written on them? And the TLO file?

So, has this happened as long as you've had IE9?  Does it blink with all/any background, or just a specific one?  Can you send me your exported layout so I can try it?   Or better yet take a backup, on the Database tab, and send me the backup file?

First, IE reports itself as IE10.

Second, I will be happy to send you the backup. I just can't seem to reproduce this problem w/out access to the dual screen setup that I mentioned above. When I can get that dual screen setup back again, I'll try to reproduce the issue and then send you the backup. Our club has a tournament this week, so I should be able to recreate it before the end of the week.  

Finally, when you say backup, I assume you only need only the templates folder. I'd prefer not to share our saved tournaments and database.

Ok, I have 2.5.14 and this problem still happens for me. It was so irritating that I just can't use background images. Even though I'd like to. There seems to be some magic key sequence (that I haven't quite figured out) that will get it to stop blinking. But then as soon as I do something it comes back. It seems to blink in synchronization with the clock ticking each second.

I should also mention, that this happens when I've got two external monitors connected to my laptop. I can't seem to make it happen when I'm using the builtin screen on my laptop.

Help Me / Re: pointsforplaying token

Yeah, I saw that in the change log for the beta. Is <pointsForumula> in 3.1 or just the beta?

Yeah, I knew from searching the forums that there are a lot of situations in which <pointsforplaying> doesn't work. But I had hoped that inLeague wasn't one of them. Can you think of any work around that might let me correctly assign league points while displaying the potential oints that league players could win?

For example, could I leave the points for playing formula as

  ((n-r)+if(finalTable,5)+if(inTheMoney,5)+if(rank==1,5))

Then change it to

  ((n-r)+if(finalTable,5)+if(inTheMoney,5)+if(rank==1,5))*(inLeague)

At the end?

Is there a way to re-evaluate points after the tournament is finished?

Thanks.

I suppose that I should mention that my league is still running TD version 2.5.14, so I'm hoping for an answer for that version.

Thanks.

Help Me / pointsforplaying token
« on: March 11, 2013, 08:50:41 PM »
I use the following formula in the points for playing section:

     ((n-r)+if(finalTable,5)+if(inTheMoney,5)+if(rank==1,5))*(inLeague)

I'd like to use the pointsforplaying token, but whenever I do, every place is zero.

If, instead I use this formula, I get the results I want in pointsforplaying:

     ((n-r)+if(finalTable,5)+if(inTheMoney,5)+if(rank==1,5))

Is there a way to set "inLeague" to 1 in the pointsforplaying token?  I've tried doing this, but it didn't work:

     <pointsforplaying orient="horizontal" ranks="1-5" displayRank="true" inLeague="1">

Suggestions?

Am I correct in my assumption that this layout will only work on 3.1.1 (and later) of TD?

Help Me / Re: Problem with data store on mapped network drive
« on: February 10, 2013, 07:00:19 AM »
At our poker club, we're wanting to start sharing the data via dropbox with a couple of members who also have The TD. So that if the main guy who typically runs the software is out, one of the other ones can easily pick up and start running it.

Is migration of the data to a new location (e.g. the drop box location) as simple as

  • copy the data to the new location
  • set up the data store in The TD to use that new location

?
