I found selecting multiple players in the new player database to be awkward. control+selecting on a mac (the traditional method for non-contiguous selection) occasionally yielded text editing boxes, and scrolling often deselected players.

may i suggest that you institute a simple checkbox system for this database? it would be easier.

other than that, it shows great promise.

How about removing the one's from the list which are selected? So you will see players on the left, all the non-players on the right.

Isn't Command-click the usual way to multiple select on the Macintosh?

yes, but it's strangely non-conforming in the TM. one, if you select someone and then press cmd in order to select the next, the first switches to edit mode. second, if you are selecting a large number of players, which requires scrolling of the list, it is very easy to have your selections nullified by a mis-click or a scrolling error. check boxes would be much more convenient.

I'm not exactly sure which section you were referring to here...

But if you are talking about any of the in-play pop-up functions (eliminations, rebuys, etc.), I haven't had any problems with the interface.

Being a software developer myself, I can see the challenge with presenting this functionality to the user. If you have a large field of participants (50+) you run the risk of not having enough screen real-estate to present all those check-boxes.

With this in mind, I'd rather have the multiple-select list box.

Ditto - except the software developer thing - I'm just a rocket scientist...

This is all revamped in v3 and much easier to do.
