Overhaul of PF Structure (impacts both PF templates and running PFs)
o Scoresheets and Reports are now subsets of a Series; Series within a PF are no longer required to all have the same Scoresheet and/or Report items
o PF Templates created in previous versions of LXEdge will be converted to the new format.
o PFs created in previous versions of LXEdge will be converted to the new format. Before conversion, a copy of the PF is placed in “My LXEdge/Legacy PFs”.
o Important Note: PF Templates and PFs created starting with the latest version (1.1.0) of LXEdge will not open in earlier versions of LXEdge (1.0.1 and earlier)
Changes to PF Template Editor
o Scoresheet and Report have been moved from the “Add Item” button located outside the Series to the “Add Item” button located inside the Series
Changes while running a PF
o User has options of:
1. Starting with a custom PF template with Series that contain all the desired Charts, Scoresheets, and Reports
2. Adding all Series, Charts, Scoresheets, and Reports as needed; previously Scoresheets and Reports were not able to be added while running PF
3. Some combination of these two options
o “Add Chart” button has been removed from bottom of the navigation bar (was located above “AddSeries”)
o A new “+” button has been added to the Series. This allows adding a Chart, Scoresheet, or Report while running a PF; previously the user had no easy way to do so if item was not already in PF template.
Added ability to save a Question Set from a Chart as either a “Template” or a “PF Template”
o To Access, click the “Edit Questions” (pencil) button in lower left corner and then “Save As” in upper right corner
o “Save as a Template…” brings up dialog for specifying folder and name for storing the template. This template can then be used in any future PF.
o “Save as PF Question Set…” brings up dialog for specifying name. The template will be stored inside the “Question Sets” folder within the PF and is available for use in later series within this PF.
o After adding a new Series, the PF Question Set Templates appear in a list near the bottom of the control for picking the template.
