Minor enhancement requests
Posted: Sat Jun 22, 2013 11:57 am
Two little enhancement requests that could probably be easy to knock out:
1.) Team Record/Scores/Teams Played Report - Many teams are seeding post season play electronically and seed managers are wanting an e-mailed report of team records, with a list of the scores of individual games (including the opponents). This is exactly what appears at the bottom of the home page for a team in the Team Manager. If we could just tap a button to e-mail that report, we wouldn't have to retype all of that information. (As far as I know, this type of report doesn't appear in any other stat report that we could export or copy/paste.) Since seeding by e-mail vote is becoming more and more common, I thought it might be an enhancement that others would appreciate.
One workaround that has presented itself - our Sr. Legion scorekeeper said he was able to just copy and paste from his screen into an e-mail, but I couldn't from mine. I'm using version 4.12, which appears to be the current version. I think he is as well, but his iPad is a more recent model than my original iPad.
2.) Make the "wheel" darker/drop shadow - I did not notice this before updating to 4.12, but when I e-mail the game report/box score following a game, the little wheel that shows that the program is processing/working on the request now blends into the white background of the information boxes on the game screen. The first time I noticed this, it was taking a long time for the e-mail to be sent (cellular data coverage was slow), but I didn't receive either the "Success" pop-up or the "unsuccessful" pop-up box. I thought I might have accidentally hit "cancel" instead of "send" and was about to hit "Email" again when the "Success" popup appeared. I think there was just a change in the graphic that appears (pretty sure it used to have a drop-shadow to help with contrast over lighter areas). If you are at the (default) top of the game page, the "wheel" sits right over the visiting Team Pitching stat box, which has a white background, and thus the wheel becomes invisible. If you scroll down a little, the slightly darker background of Team Batting and Team Fielding stat boxes makes the wheel barely visible, and if you scroll to the even darker background between the visiting team and the home team, you can see the wheel. It would be nice (but not necessary) if you could see that wheel regardless of where it was on the screen.
Thanks again for all that you do and your responsiveness to enhancement requests.
