Mouse Hover Language - Score Reporting Config Tab


 

I checked past posts here and the ticketing system and didn't see anything, so I apologize if this has been discussed already here or elsewhere. Also, this is a very minor, nitpick item/question.
?
From my understanding/reading (which may very well be incorrect), if one selects to use the "Include Real Time QSO data for Real Time Scoring"?selection, then by default, the user would in fact be sending their band breakdown information, unless the user ALSO selects the option to "Exclude Band Breakdowns" in submitting/passing their score to the reporting servers.??
?
However, if one hovers over the "Include Real Time QSO data for Real Time Scoring" with their mouse, the following language is displayed:? "Select when band breakdowns should not be sent to the scores site."??
?
Wouldn't the exclusion for sending band breakdowns be covered with the other "Exclude Band Breakdowns" selection item?? Should it not say something to the effect of "This selection will include band breakdown information unless you opt to exclude it with the other selection on this tab"?or something similar?
?
Or, am I wrong to assume that the "Include Real Time QSO data for Real Time Scoring" sends band breakdown information by default? If it doesn't, why is there an independent "Exclude Band Breakdowns"?selection option? Or, is the "Exclude Band Breakdowns" selection item meant to only be used in conjunction with the general "Report Real-Time Score to Server" selection option?
?
Thanks in advance - Mike


 

It's simpler than that. The text of the tool tip for the "Include Real Time QSO data or Real Time Scoring" option is identical to the text of the tool tip for the "Exclude Band Breakdowns" option. Evidently the programmer copied the code for the older band breakdowns checkbox when setting up the code for the newer real time scoring checkbox, but forgot to change the text for the new tool tip.
?
When the Real Time Scoring option is selected, detailed QSO data is sent to the real time scoring website for every QSO. This is in addition to the summary score data that is sent to the online scoreboard websites. The Exclude Band Breakdowns option applies only to the summary data for the online scoreboards; by its very nature the QSO data sent to the real time scoring website has to include band information.

Thanks for the clarity and quick response Rich. I figured that was likely the case, but the tool tip language threw me for a loop! Ha.
