Default Settings Request

Post by Soylent Green » Wed Mar 31, 2010 3:00 pm

FTM - Really enjoy using iScore... great stuff!

Two suggestions that I'd like to see (or learn how to do if already available):

1. Is there a way to set global default setting for innings pitched? For most leagues, there is a set max inning (5, 6 or 7). It would shorten game set up if this could be set once for the season. It would also gaurd against oversight, as I like to use the ERG rather than ERA... if a few games fail to get properly listed as less than 9 innings, those pitchers' numbers are effected adversely.

2. On selecting the pitch type for the scatterplot; I think it would be helpful if the pitch type defaulted back to "fastball" after each entry... since this is generally the pitch most often thrown by most youth pitchers. If I select "change-up" and then get distracted over the next few pitches, then I've entered multiple "change ups" inadvertantly.

I'm still a novice as compared with many posters here; maybe these are items that can currently be set. I've done searches but haven't seen either addressed. Sincere thanks.

For #1, our next release remembers the last settings you used for # of innings, and uses that for the next game you create. You can always go back after the game and modify the number of innings if needed. Just go in to Game Manager, select the game, touch Play, then touch the "tools icon" to bring up the Game Settings. You can modify the # of innings there.

For #2, because you can enter pitch types / locations / speed in any order, there isn't really a good time to "reset" the default pitch type. We are trying to be as flexible as possible for people entering pitch information to accomodate people's most comfortable way of tracking things. We will keep the suggestion in mind as we continue to improve the product however.

Thank you.
