kibitzer mode, spectator mode

First of all, the BBO vugraph is great and the comments by people like brolucius are good fun!

 

Unfortunately, we always have to watch all four hands. I would like to spectate only my favorite player, and the dummy when it appears. Can't do this now, can I? Should not be sooo difficult to implement, and there is a real need of it during the BB!

Turns out you CAN watch only ONE player: edit your profile by right-clicking on your username (to be found when you hover the mouse over the table rose) and then rightclick and then "Edit Profile". Hard to find, but oh well.

 

However, this does not work when watching saved matches, since i can not get to the "Edit Profile" thing.

 

I would love to watch saved matches in kibitzer mode, watching only 1 player and dummy. How to do this?

Open file in notepad

go down a to you find a line that has qx|o1| in it,

after the qx|o1|(or the first qx and any c# or o#) add sk|N|

 

This sets kibitzer to north... you can do sk|E|, sk|S|, sk|W| for other players

 

Save as plain txt with a name with out txt....

 

That will work.

 

I wo ouod create a backup the file first incase something goes horribly wrong.

Adding the sk|S| or sk|N| etc can actually be done before any of the deal records (the qx| lines). The easiest place is probably to insert a line directly after the first line in the file.

 

Just insert a new line at row 2 and type the tag sk|P| where P is either N, S, E or W

 

The applet to view the LIN files is actually very forgiving of bad data. If you do enter a wrong value is is usually ignored.
