So, yes we have been hard at work with the 2010 release of the Play Designer Series. We have heard from many of our long-time customers and our new customers about features that you would like to see. We also speak to potential customers using other methods for their playbooks and are considering our solution for play and playbook design. The Play Designer was released into pre-release yesterday 11/29/2008. We are proud to offer our first subscription for folks who want to save money, but always get the latest release. With the subscription, you get the designer and the add-on for one low yearly price.
Here are the major features for v8.0.
Here are the major features for v8.0.
- The ability to create curved lines as well as straight lines. Our goal was to make this extremely easy while maintaining the same way a line is drawn in seconds in our software. We believe we have achieved this.
- The ability to edit your lines without a redraw. Simply click a button, and you will be able to edit/drag each point of the route (straight or curved) to establish a new line quickly and easily
- We are changing our preferences menu so that in one window vs. a menu you can change some of the many features available to you for your settings
- The PDF Playbook will have a 24 play format which won't be great for printing, but will be great to e-mail a one page playbook around and if you need a quick one-page reference on the sidelines, you will have this available to you.
- The PDF Playbook will also have less white space; each play will be a little bit larger so that you can see on screen and certainly when printed.
- For our basketball, soccer, lacrosse and hockey users, you will explicitly be able to "shoot" the ball and have that animate properly within the play.
- You now can set the line to be drawn from the top or bottom of the player or have the software continue to calculate the line for you.
