Prisma Puzzle Timer

[EricReese]

Someone had the same problem. It doesn't make any sense.

That was me. Someone stole my stackmat last competition so I just bought another one, so when that comes in I willl try this program out again and see if it will work this time, hopefully this thing works for me on the second try

I request that it be added onto the timer, the function to do multiple cubes at once (give the scrambles and such). Although my You Can do the rubik's cube competition is on Saturday it would be nice to have it in the future.

You can get a list of scrambles from the scramble queue and export them for comps. etc.

I'd want to suggest a feature: Exporting data. A lot of people use this timer for timing with their PC since it is just great - but also lots of them like cubemania. Now, since there is no way to export data, one does have to transfer every time by hand which can be a lot of work....

So my suggestion is: Make it possible to export a selectable range of solves (so only the noew times can be selected) from the history into a CSV-file.

Problems with One Hand solving?

When I place both hands on the stackmat and remove only one, the stackmat starts*, but Prisma Timer does not. If I remove the other hand from the timer at any point it will start. Does anyone know how to fix this?

You could use the space bar for the timer trigger and rest your other hand on the keyboard somewhere

I don't like to use the space bar for my trigger because the cube scuffs my keyboard when I drop it on it at the end.

then use a stackmat!?

Yup.

any idea when that next release will be out??

I have no idea, sorry.

I'll reduce the scope of the next version to release it as soon as possible.

I have some ideas how to improve PPT:
I should be able to create sessions that I have, for example an old 3x3 session and a new 3x3 session, because I want to recognise the process of getting faster in average.
And after implementing this, it would be nice if I see the current average always on the bottom right corner.
Everything else is fine No doubt, it's the best PC timer!

Thanks JohnZoidberg.

You can create more than one category for the same event, but it's not really a good idea. Keep using one category by event and take a look in the statistics window to monitor your progress.

Thanks Josh. Pedro noticed this some time ago. It's fixed in development version.

Like relays and multi-bld, isn't it? I want it in Prisma too...

A graph

What?

So if someone is having trouble with stackmat timer, get it stolen in a competition, buy another one and it'll work on the second try.

What?

Like gqtimer. Like after every Avg of 5/12/25/50/100, show the option of inputing the average on a graph to see how your times have gone up and down. See cubemania.org for another example.

Thanks Eric, it's a good idea. I think Erik suggested this exactly feature some time ago.

If you really want to transfer you data right now, you can select some/all rows in the history window, Ctrl + C, and it'll be in the clipboard separated by tabs (works under Windows, at least).

Thanks. I'll check them out.

Awesome. Where can I get this version / when will it be out?

Thanks, I will try that out. Furthermore you may contact the guys on cubemania to make it possible to import data there. I already made a suggestion in the "feedback section", but it didn't get many votes yet (I assume about no one uses that feedback forum). Anyway, their contacts are on the page.

For me the entire histroy of every event just dissapeared where is it is it gonne or some on the desktop of my computer?

 

[Tall5001]

I would like to request on big cubes such as 4x4 instead of Dw i would rather see d i find it hard to read scrambles with the Dw Fw Rw stuf is that possible or make it a toggle option?

Rw and r are two different things. r in a scramble like you suggest would read [Rw R'] as r is the 3. from the left.

L l r R
F f b B
U u d D

L l r R
F f b B

In WCA notation. It might be nice to recognize both, not sure if that's easy for PPT.
(Also, cubers don't normally group moves using brackets, as far as I know; they use parentheses.)

No. r is a double layer turn and so is Rw.
