HUD colour issues (NA, N/A, infinite)

Postby awishformore » Fri Sep 25, 2009 4:36 pm

Hey.

I usually use colours to indicate whether a certain value is either fishy, LAG, TAG, calling station or whatever. Now, I want my values to be grey if they don't mean anything (NA, N/A). As it appears, you have changed the convention so that NA and N/A now both display with the same colour as 0 (zero). This is very irritating, because certain values like WTS and especially aggression factor and fold-to-3bet values / zero are something completely different from N/A or NA.

Also, it's impossible to have infinite in the same color as, for instance, anything over 5, it will always display in the default colour because the colour ranges are limited in size. Last but not least, I'm wondering what the convention about NA and N/A is - I would prefer to have it all displayed as NA or even -, because it saves a lot of precious space on the table.

Could you please put in some more thought about this and keep it consistent?

Greetings, Max.

I'm not sure what difference you're drawing between NA and N/A - I believe the only time "N/A" is used by default is for Aggression Factor (and possible Aggression Frequency) and it means the same as NA elsewhere - it means there are no opportunities, so the value of the stat does not exist (as it's 0/0).

You can color stats also via the Configure Statistics interface (Configure --> Configure Statistics, for HUD stats either choose Holdem Cash Player Statistics or Holdem Tournament Player Statistics, then choose the Stats tab). Click on the stat you want, then go to the Colors tab. Here you can color by any value you would like, including the opportunities fields. You can use this to color "infinite" values the same as you color high end values (check to see that the denominator is 0 and the numerator is non-zero).

You can change the text/characters use for the NA text in the Settings Window.
This will affect all stats except AF, as Kraada mentioned.

So why is there a distinction between the aggression factor N/A and the other NA - afaik both mean the same thing; so I should be able to change both and have some sort of consistency on my HUD.

The N/A for AF is hard coded into the statistic itself. Click Configure --> Configure Statistics --> Holdem Cash Player Statistics section, then click on the Stats tab. Click on Total AF and look on the Format tab at the format expression - that's where N/A is coded in.

If you duplicate Total AF and change the N/A there to something else and use New Total AF instead you'll see whatever you'd like instead of N/A.

Well I just did that, but there is one more thing, and this IS a bug.

As you can say, you can configure the 'NA' to display as '-' - which is nice. The colour you can define is still overwritten by the colour you define for 0 in the colour ranges tab, so what's the point in having it then? I'm certain this was handled correctly by the HUD before, so there must have been a change that suddenly made all my NA green or red instead of the old grey.

Yes, that is a bug, and we will look into what needs to be done to get that fixed.

Could it be this bug (NA is the same color as 0) is not yet fixed? Or there is a way how to configure it? (while using HUDs color ranges to display stat on HUD in different color depending from value) For me NA is the same color as 0 what is somewhat disturbing for stats like 3Bet, F-3Bet.
