Bug Fix for score entry when Details are set to Off.
Board Vulnerability was not being correctly identified, so some legal scores were not allowed. This has been corrected.
Save and Copy Option
This is an option which must be explicitly selected in the Settingss and it applies to Details ON processing only. If set to ON, when a board is selected scored and saved, the bid details ( 1 NT by S Made 3 ), those details are saved. When another line on the travelers is selected, that bid is set as the starting point for scoring. Lead details (if those are on) will carried forward. You can change anything, but if the board bid and results were the same, simply pick Save and move to the next line on the traveler. When a different board is selected the saved information is cleared.
Scoring with Details Off
Selecting whether or not to add bid details for a particular traveler row can now be set on the Score Match View in addition to the Settings Page.
Scores entered for each direction are checked for validity based on the vulnerability status for that board.
