Changes for release 4.31.0-beta04

4.31.0-beta04: Intermittent down signal lag under Chrome (on some machines)

  • Not observed on Firefox. The issue appears to be specific to the Chrome sound API (also used by Edge).

4.31.0-beta04: Fixed background colors for attempt and decision board when no group has been selected; also fixed outline colors on the plates and collars selection page.

4.31.0-beta03: Hide scoreboard ranks for snatch and clean&jerk if the competition setting is for total medals only.

4.31.0-beta02: Fix: the dark mode scoreboard table background was not the same as the page background

4.31.0-beta02: Fix: files from an override zip were added to the list of available files instead of taking precedence over the default files.

4.31.0-beta01: Fix: toggle between light and dark display did not show the selected value correctly.

4.31.0-alpha04: New feature toggle setting on the "Language and Settings" page.

4.31.0-alpha04: New scoreboards are the default when using the Displays page buttons. See the Notes below keep using the old scoreboards by using a feature toggle.

Changes for 4.31. releases*

  • New "Feature Toggle" capability to selectively enable features, located at the bottom the Languages and Parameters page. If more than one feature toggle is needed, they are separated by commas.

  • New parameterized scoreboards. Colors can be changed in the styles/colors.css file (The default colors are the same as the previous defaults. The scoreboards can be zoomed in or out using the Ctrl+ and Ctrl- keys to accommodate more lines, or to make text bigger with smaller groups.

    • displays/results show results only, with ranks. If the screen is VGA or narrower (old-style projectors) then only the total rank is kept.
    • displays/resultsLeaders same as results, but with the leaders of the current athlete's main category shown at the bottom
    • displays/resultsLeadersRanks same as results, but all the ranks in all the eligible categories are shown.
    • displays/resultsMedals for medals.
    • The ratio of team column to name column can be changed in styles/results.css for federations that use very long team names.
    • Ranks for snatch and clean&jerk are shown if the competition is configured to award medals for the lifts on the competition rules page, and hidden otherwise.

    Notes

    • The old URLs still work alongside the new URLs (new page names that start with results)
    • To keep using the old scoreboards when clicking the buttons, include the word oldScoreboards to the list of "Feature Toggles" at the bottom of the "Languages and Settings" page.
    • Changing colors.css also changes the attempt board and the decision display . Top teams / Top Sinclair do not have a light theme, so only the background colors are changed.

  • Improvement: Break triggered by marshal creates a "Marshal Issue" notification to the other TOs.

  • Fix: Password issues. In some circumstances, password access to the application would stop working, requiring the use of configuration variables to override.

  • Fix: When running a round-robin competition, the weight requested between rounds can be lower than that at the last clock start. The normal check is therefore disabled.

Highlights from recent stable releases

  • Improved management of ceremonies

    • Documented new and improved Breaks and Ceremonies procedures, including the Medal Ceremony process. Ceremonies take place without interfering with countdown timers.
    • New Medals spreadsheet for the announcer see Result Documents.
    • Selectable behavior for public vs warmup scoreboards. Warmup scoreboards do not switch during the medal ceremonies.
    • Additional protocol templates with predefined paper sizes. Also included a version with snatch, clean&jerk and total ranks.

  • Jury console now supports summoning the referees either individually or all together. The jury console now allows direct reversal/confirmation of lifts (#435, #427)

  • The Refereeing screen (typically used on phones or tablets) now displays notifications when a decision is expected or when the jury summons the referee.

  • It is now possible to build affordable physical devices to receive instructions from owlcms (decision expected, jury calls referee) using MQTT. Software and circuit schematics are available at this location.

  • Video Streaming: Support for Open Broadcaster Software (OBS) automated scene switching. Added documentation for all supported transitions.

  • It is now possible to choose and override the Excel templates for competitions cards, the start list, the starting weight sheet, the results (protocol), and the final package (attempts, sinclair, robi, team results, etc.)

  • It is now possible to Export and Import the database content (#449). This allows taking a snapshot of the database in the middle of a competition. It also allows bringing back a Heroku database for local use, and conversely, setting up a competition locally prior to loading on Heroku.

  • Explicit support for participation to multiple age groups (#433)

  • All resources in the local directory take precedence over the built-in ones (visual styles, templates, age group definitions, sounds, etc.)

  • Implemented the rules to prevent athletes from moving down their requested weight illegally. Moving down is denied if the athlete should already have attempted that weight according to the official lifting order. The exact checks resulting from applying the TCRR to that situation are spelled out in the documentation. (#418)

  • Violations of rules for timing of declarations (before initial 30 seconds), and for changes (before final warning) are now signaled as errors (#425, #426). Overriding is possible for officiating mistakes.
