Stats page

[whirlers]

Sorry for all thse questions lately, i just thought it was about time to use this software to it's potential....i just have no idea how to do most of it  

As we run a 12 week league, i am constantly using the stats page to show the players where they stand in the leaderboard & any other useful stats they require. What i'm wondering is can the stats page be shown as a screen set like the table, player ranking etc etc pages and if so how do i add this into my tournament, say.....every 5 mins the current leaderboard pops up during the main game for 15 secs.

Don't worry about asking questions - we're here to help when we're able to!

Best bet to get the stats to show is to export the stats to csv, then to open it with excel. Then save it as html (this is key).

Then in TD, create a new screen. you'll want to use the <iframe> token. I believe that you'll want it to be something like this: <iframe "source=(path to the html file)" width=600 height=600>

You can modify the height and width as you need to - just don't put values larger than your screen resolution, otherwise the page will obviously go off the screen.

TD can export the stats directly to HTML...no need to go to csv first (unless you want to manipulate the stats first.\)

Bah... Forgot that... LOL... I usually do manipulate the look of the stats, which is why I stated to goto csv... thanks for the correction jody (or clarification)

Cheers guys.

Having never done this before i'm kinda lost.
I have saved the league as a html
I have created a new screen screen called leaderboard

Now i'm lost, do i insert a cell/column then insert a token into the cell ?? I'm not sure i can even find the tokens lol

Ok i have sussed the tokens, but i can't seem to find a iFrame token.....am i looking in the wrong place ??

you don't really need to look for the token, as you can copy it from here, and paste it into TD, and just replace the one part with the path to your file name. Otherwise, if you still can't find it, reply back and I'll search for it on my comp and letcha know.

I did try copy & pasting with replacing your text with my html location, but nothing seems to be happening

This is what i'm using

<iframe "source=(C:\Users\Whirlers\Documents\The Tournament Director 2\Data\saves\Leaderboard.html)" width=800 height=800>

If i change the background to black for the cell, i can see a white box with my specified size's but no text for some reason.

<iframe> is an HTML element, not a TD token.  You can find documentation all over the web for it, but here's a link to Microsoft's documentation:

You should change yours to:

<iframe src="C:\Users\Whirlers\Documents\The Tournament Director 2\Data\saves\Leaderboard.html" width=800 height=800>
