Title: Prizes Tab suggestions
Post by: IBuyCars on March 02, 2013, 02:43:34 PM
Hi Corey I’ve got a couple suggestions / wants for the next or a later version of TD

Prizes Tab = Put in a “Display All Prizes” / “Display No Prizes” switch, button or option
Many of the tournaments we hold at our club have multiple (3) levels of Buy-in and consequently the same number of prize-pools, although they’re not commonplace now, I see that more and more venues around the UK are starting to adopt the “Multi Level Entry” / “Multi Prize Pool” tournament idea, I guess that most of us who run these type of tournaments calculate the prizes manually and create a list of manual prize in TD to display to the players.

A feature that I would like to see would be the ability to insert a line which could contain a header for each prize-pool (see attached graphic), it would also be great if the header/s could replace the static word “Prizes” in the excellent (Stuart Murray) Abstract layout.

PS Sorry more Multi Level suggestions to follow in a few days

Shouldn't be too hard to make a "global" option to show/hide prizes.  Or are you suggesting that we have multiple sets of prizes, each with their own way to show/hide?

Thats not what I was suggesting although that would be a very nice addition.

What i would like is the ability to insert a line which would allow me to place a header as per the graphic above.

I've just started using the the excellent (Stuart Murray) Abstract layout, and the prizes rotate, I have 3 seperate prize pools for many of our tournaments, so the header row could state which prize pool was being displayed. if you look at the file i sent you last week with the (0.01) prizes issue using the above mentioned layout I think it will be clear what I would like to acheive.

Regards

So, are you just looking for a separator?  Something that just adds a separator (with text) but doesn't have any actual functionality?
