Score Up issue

[FBC]

Hi Ian
Whilst running swiss pairs and swiss teams tests yesterday on the Bridgemates i noticed that when scoring up in both tests that i had to click "score up" or f6 two or 3 times for it to actually work. Happened repeatedly as i ran multiple tests.

There were a few other issues that i wanted to check on re the Bridgemates functionality.

1/ In both swiss pairs and teams all players have to key in their numbers at the start of every match? Does ase8 not retain the numbers from 1st entry?
2/ In swiss pairs when you do the draw for any round you cant view it under "Seating/Dreaw" you can only view it in "Event Guide"
3/ In teams the draw works but is not in chronological order from the leaders down. Seems to be from the bottom up?
Thanks again Ian for all your help

I would increase the "time between reads of bridgemate scores" option in [bridgemates][advanced]. Remeber the scorer can only do one thing at a time. Capture scores and score cannot happen at the same time.

1/ In both swiss pairs and teams all players have to key in their numbers at the start of every match? Does ase8 not retain the numbers from 1st entry?
It does but the option to enter names is a bridgemate option (see [settings]).

2/ In swiss pairs when you do the draw for any round you cant view it under "Seating/Dreaw" you can only view it in "Event Guide"
I can in my examples.

3/ In teams the draw works but is not in chronological order from the leaders down. Seems to be from the bottom up?
Not sure what you mean? It is in tables number order but remember as the event proceeds the opponents for each team can be more remote from first place.

Hi Ian
Thanks for all those answers.

i think on a number of these i may not have been as clear as i should have.

[B]I understand it is a bridgemate option but when we run a standard mitchel or howell movement on bridgemates the players only have to enter their names in round 1. For both the swiss pairs and teams tests they have to enter it every round?

Sorry wasnt clear here. When you do a draw for round 2 or later rounds in teams( no bridgemates) and print it out the program sorts the draw descending ie the team in 1st place is drawn first etc on the printout.

when you do this in bridgemates the draw is printed in ascending order(last team playing second last)!!!! Well it did for the two test team events i did?
