Match Up Mode

What's under Richie tab Richie???? or is that Top Secret

[Ted Craven]

For the record, I added the ability to suppress ITV and DTV (i.e. adjustments) along with highlighting a projected Pace of Race, Power Lines and Power Moves, coloured Running Positions - to support a (so-called) Match Up mode, all under Richie's guidance. And I appreciate that Jim Bradshaw really had no use for RDSS, or simply supported Richie's use of the matching-related tools if they worked for Richie.

There are perhaps other tools yet to be implemented to support matching, but I will likely only do them under Richie's further guidance, if at all. That said, I myself strongly caution RDSS users to not attempt to mix and match adjusted, compounded factors showing incremental velocity, deceleration and line scores (i.e. Doc's methodology) with the Match Up taught by the Hat and by Richie. Use one or the other - and become a master at it. Several RDSS users tell me they use it specifically for matching, and profitably. I envy their ability to do so, but for those who cannot (including myself), the classic (i.e. Val/Spec/TPR) adjusted approach provides equally effective tools (IMO).

P.S. There's nothing left in the 'Richie Tab' - it's an artifact of earlier versions where M/L odds display was suppressed on request, and one or 2 other settings to tinker with, which were abandoned some time ago.

Charlie, your 'eyeball-scan' layout suggestion might be able to be created by users themselves in an upcoming version which I hope will permit custom re-arrangement of column positions (or blocks of data) on some screens. You could move the Conditions column to another position, thus bringing the Pace of Race and Running Position sections adjacent.
