Getin/Getout -- View Record

Figure 3.3 shows the View Record window. This window displays a single record from the current getin/getout database. The name of the current database is displayed within the window title.

Add (Section 3.1) creates a new record in the current getin/getout database with the same perm number (i.e., formation, dancer arrangement, and dancer facing directions) and allows you to edit it.

Change selects another record to be displayed. Depending upon how this window was accessed, not all of these menu options may be available.
  • Previous record (PgUp) F1 displays the previous record in the record set.
  • Next record (PgDn) F2 displays the next record in the record set.
  • Previously viewed record F5 displays the previously displayed record. This is similar to an undo command: if a record is inadvertently displayed, this option can be used to return to the previously displayed record.
  • Last sorted record displays the last record within the sorted portion of the database.
  • First record in database (Home) Ctrl+F1 displays the first record (record #1) within the database.
  • Last record in database (End) Ctrl+F2 displays the last record within the database.
  • Select record Ctrl+R prompts you to enter the record number of the next record to be displayed. This menu option can be skipped by simply typing a record number followed by the Enter key.
  • Change database changes the current database. For example, if you are viewing getouts and find a particularly nice one, you may wish to write an opening biggie with it. To do so, change the database to the GETIN database and the program then displays the first record within the GETIN database with the same formation. You can then navigate to subsequent records via PgDn or F2.

Edit (Section 3.1) edits the currently displayed record. Alternatively, double-clicking within the text box edits the record.

Find
  • Find record(s) searches the current getin/getout database for a set of records matching a particular search criteria. You can search by perm number (a formation with specific dancers in specific locations with specific facing directions) (Section 3.1.1) or you can do a generalized search (Section 3.1.2), limits the search within any of the following criteria: a selected record range, a selected level range, a text string, proofread status, private status, use count, handle number, quickie count, last level used, or author.
  • Find next F3 starts at the currently displayed record and searches for the next record in the database that matches the current search criteria.
  • Find previous Ctrl+F3 displays the previous record in the database that matches the current search criteria.

Parse (Section 5.2) parses the highlighted record.

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.

Toggle delete (F8) toggles the deleted status of the currently displayed record between 'not deleted' and 'deleted'. The record is not actually deleted, but a flag is set within the record marking it as deleted. Records marked as deleted have the text string 'RECORD MARKED AS DELETED' displayed across the window in large red letters.

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 in a sequence. Whenever you use a getin or getout in a sequence that is not an opening biggie, you should increment the use count. In this manner, at a glance, you can tell if you're overusing or underusing a particular getin or getout.
  • 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'. You should increment the quickie count whenever you use a particular getin or getout record within an opening biggie sequence. The quick count is particularly useful when automatically generating opening biggies (Section 3), since you can easily determine which getins and getouts have already been used in opening biggies.

Exit closes this window.
