[title size=”2″]Great Changes for Hunter Scoring[/title]

  1. Implemented Hunter Score Types (similar to jump tables) with 3 values:
    1. Score with Jog
    2. No Score with Jog
    3. No Score, No Jog
  2. New group view of “Live Now” page on the app with tabs to switch between classes
    class_tabs
  3. Changed “Live Now” to show grouped classes as single item
  4. Fixed stagger for Hunter classes to display in reverse order of score for position
  5. The disqualify option is added for Hunter/Equitation classes as well. Just like Jumpers, a disqualified trip is displayed at the bottom on stagger and on leaderboard/readerboard.
  6. Stacked Leaderboards for grouped classes
    stacked_leader_boards
  7. Consolidated remaining trips/lined up (only show entry once even if it has more than one trip)
  8. We defaulted the jog order to 10 and allow the in-gate to edit the value. This value is then stored in the [Class_Group] and used on the Live Classes. In grouped classes, the value entered in this field will be used for all classes in group. Also important to note that this field is now placed with Hunter Type drop-down in the in-gate.
  9. Classes now display shaded sections for the jog order.
  10. Number in jog order will be based on the number of placing for the class (plus 2 for reserve or number of entries in the class, whichever is less)
  11. Entries returning for the jog will be listed as JOG-1, JOG-2 etc.
  12. We added the same disqualify options in Hunter Scoring as we offer in Jumper Scoring
  13. Created the ability to change the number of Jog trips by setting a variable on ingate tool.  Just type in the number!

 

[title size=”2″]Web-based Order of Go Tool[/title]

We continue to make awesome changes to the Order of Go tools.

  1. For Under Saddle Classes, setting orders on web has been disallowed.
  2. Added an Order of Go “type” as a new set of radio buttons including options for
    1. Set Order
    2. Check-in  – The Check-in message is displayed on Class Detail on the web and iOS app and on the Order listing on web. When type is set to Check In, the entries are presented in entry number order.
  3. Class Signup – feature is set in the simple scheduler and cannot be changed.
  4. Manual Order on Web – We created an interface that allows users to click entries from one list to another, similar to the manual order in our office software.
  5. We improved the reliability of saves by increasing the payload size sent back to the server.
  6. Added better error handling.

 

[title size=”2″]Updates to Readerboard for In-gate[/title]

The new leaderboard is now Live! Please also note the following changes:

  • Top graphics have been removed and the ring status is now displayed across the top.
  • Only “current group” is displayed in the ring, but there is an expand/collapse button to view full ring.
  • If there are no classes scheduled in the ring for selected day, then that ring is not displayed.
  • “Lined-up” and “Leaderboards” are added and work just like the Live Class page.
  • The ring status is updated while the trips data is updated.
  • The date selector and ring selector are moved at the bottom.

[title size=”2″]In-gate/Announcer Tool Updates[/title]

  1. When a new trip is added, it now follows the sort order of trips remaining.
  2. Fine-tuned the checkbox for ordering J/O trips by order or by position if the columns have been reordered.
  3. Created the ability to change Rider
  4. Created the ability to Double Click on entry in Trips Remaining. This is the same as checking the box: the curser goes directly to scoring box for round 1. Then user can simply key in faults. Hitting tab brings curser to scoring box for round 2. Hit enter to store.
  5. If they use the set planned start time on the anncouncer interface AND the class is an undersaddle, the undersaddle flag gets cleared.

 

[title size=”2″]Exporting FEI Results in Excel[/title]

We recently added an option in “Classes” called “Export FEI Results to Excel.” This will generate a single Excel file with tabs for each class. Please note that users will need to select (highlight) the FEI classes, then select this option. Once this option is selected, please enter the class number for Team. (Users can enter the class number or leave it empty if for no team.) We have completed the web services integration with FEI.

 

[title size=”2″]Changes to ShowGroundsLive.com[/title]

  1. When running a Hunter Class with No Score/No Jogs, the list of entries is displayed when that class is selected on ShowGroundsLive.com from the Live Class  & Show Schedule. Instead of saying “This class is not running live,”it displays the entries.
  2. We enhanced the performance of the “admin area” on ShowGroundsLive to increase speed and display details.
  3. We now display count down and count up timers on Live classes! We are right in sync with Pyramid Timing.
  4. For split classes, we now display two sections side by side for better clarity.  See Section A and Section B below:
