Getin/Getout -- View Several Records

Figure 3.2 shows the View Several Records window. The name of the current database is displayed within the window title.

The window consists of several parts:
  1. The Perm # (upper L-H corner) is the perm number of the current getin/getout.
  2. The [dancer icons] (upper L-H area) show the locations and facing directions of dancers within the formation for the current getin/getout.
  3. The Last call was field (center L-H area) shows what the last line of the sequence is.
  4. The getin/getout text (upper R-H corner) displays the entire text for the current getin/getout.
  5. The record information frame (center R-H area) shows fields within the current getin/getout.
  • Proofread indicates whether the record is proofread or not.
  • Level used at is the level at which the record was last used.
  • Date is the date that this record was last edited or 'used'.
  • Author is the author of the record.
  • Private indicates whether the record is private or not.
  • Quickie count is the number of times the record has been used in an opening biggie.
  1. The large list box (bottom of window) shows all records matching the search criteria. There are three fields within the list box:
  • Level indicates the level of the getin/getout record.
  • Use indicates how many times the record has been used in a sequence (other than for an opening biggie).
  • Text is the text of the getin/getout record.
  1. Immediately above the large list box are:
  • N matching records (centered) which indicates the number of records within the list box.
  • Record index = N (R-H side) which shows the record index of the current getin/getout.

Add (Section 3.1) adds a new record to the current getin/getout database. The perm number of the new record defaults to the currently displayed formation so that in most cases only the text and private indicator need to be specified.

Change
  • Database changes the current database. This is a very useful feature: if for example, you are searching a getout database for a specific perm number and find a particularly good getout, you can use this menu option to change to a getin database and select a matching getin record in order to write an 'opening biggie'.
  • Search criteria (Sections 3.1.1 and 3.1.2) changes the search criteria for the currently displayed records

Edit (Section 3.1) allows fields within the currently highlighted record to be edited. Alternatively, double-clicking on a row within the list box also invokes the getin/getout record editor.

Find navigates backward and forward via the perm numbers within the current database.
  • Previous perm # F1 changes the current perm number to the preceding perm number within the current database, and does a search for that perm number.
  • Next perm # F2 changes the current perm number to the following perm number within the current database, and does a search for that perm number.

Proofread (F12) attempts to proofread the highlighted record.

For getin records, the program checks that when starting from a squared set and executing the highlighted calls, the dancers end in the displayed ending formation.

For getout records, the program checks that when starting from the displayed formation and executing the highlighted calls, a valid resolution results.

After proofreading, the proofread status of the highlighted record is updated to a 'Yes' or "no' as appropriate. The proofread status is located under the text box in the upper R-H corner immediately following 'Proofread ='.

Toggle delete (F8) toggles the delete status of highlighted record between deleted and not-deleted. Deleted records exist in the database (until the database is sorted) and may be undeleted if desired (F8 undeletes the record if it is still in the list box; Undo last delete (F5) undeletes the record if it is no longer in the list box). Records marked as deleted are permanently removed from the database when the database is sorted.

Undo last delete (F5) undeletes the last deleted record and places that record back within the list if necessary, highlights it.

Use increments one of the count fields within the record. The count fields indicate the number of times that the getin/getout record was used within your sequences.
  • Use normally Ctrl+U prompts for the 'Level used at', and then increments the 'Use count' of the current record by 1. The 'Use count' is intended to count how many times the record was used within your sequences.
  • Use as quickie Ctrl+Q increments the 'Quickie count' of the current record by 1. The 'Quickie count' is intended to count how many times the record was used within an 'opening biggie'.

Use and insert prompts for the 'Level used at', increments the 'Use count' of the record by 1, returns to the edit sequence window, adds the getout to the sequence, and executes the calls within the getout.

View (Section 3.3) displays the currently highlighted record in full screen format.

Other accesses infrequently used menu options.
  • Parse (Section 5.2) parses the currently highlighted record.
  • Delete all records, after confirmation, marks all records in the list as deleted.
  • Un-delete all records, after confirmation, marks all records in the list as not deleted.

Exit closes this window.
