BBO Web Version

[pat 260z]

In the web version of BBO under results of hands there seems to be a place for favorite hands. How do you work this

 

Thanks

When you see a hand you like, look at it carefully.

See the words "Options" ?

 

Click it

 

Then click "Export Deal"

 

Then click "save deal as"

 

Then you can name it whatever, save in whatever folders.

 

You can also create more foldres via "My BBO" -> "Hands and Results", so you can save many many hands, ready to be called up anytime.

But how to upload hands from my HD to a teaching table?

 

And how to upload predealt hands to a tourney?

Flash applications can't access your files, so I don't think you can upload hands with the web client.

Cant upload from HD yet.

 

What we'll probably do for hands already on your HD is supply a web page that will convert them into hands in folders.

 

What we'll probably do about upload-hands-to-tourney is allow you to specify a folder as a deal source for a tourney.

 

Not in this forthcoming web version, which we're testing, but perhaps the one after that.

Hi , my knowledge about flash is not much, but I saw a website of a photo editing application (http://www.sumo.fi) made by flash, and there you can upload an image from your computer and save the edited photo to your computer. How do they do that, and why can't something similar be done for BBO?

Now that you mention it, there's a PPV video downloading site I've gone to that has a flash download manager as an alternative to using the browser's built-in download. But it never seems to work for me (but maybe they've only tested it on Windows, and I have a Mac).

 

I just did some googling, and it looks like the rule in Flash is that the app can't access files behind the scenes, only interactively in response to user interactions. This is why BBO Flash can't save all your games and chat logs like BBO Win does. But it should still be able to upload or download individual files on demand.
