...as we were in our previous post about syncing with SailEvent, Sailing Club Software has contributed a publishing effect to Sailwave’s effects library.
It’s called the Pager and shows results, fleet by fleet, in a continuous cycle, ideal for display on a screen in the clubhouse. When applied to a Sailwave series file, the Pager shows the first fleet in the series then moves on to the next. When it gets to the end it starts again from the top.
Each fleet is shown for a default 25 seconds but you can adjust that. The default number of visible rows per fleet is about 20 so the Pager is best suited to multiple small fleet series, such as club racing. For championships and open meetings with fewer, bigger fleets there’s the Scroller effect.
The Pager effect isn’t directly part of SailEvent but it does present a neat finale to SailEvent’s flow from entry form to results. It’s included in all recent versions of Sailwave and we hope you find it useful.
