Is there any way to show all-in chances at the time of all-in only?
I know Pokerstars has this natively, but I don't want to sweat it on every street as it changes, as this can distract me.
I just want the immediate feedback after going all-in.
Perhaps you could consider adding a new tag for players

Ok I'll try to add a such tag


Im trying to add a color range to [totalpot_bb] there doesn't seem to be an option in the tag color range. I know it's possible though as iv'e seen color ranges added to the pot in game.
any help would be appreciated, im sure im overlooking something obvious!
thanks

Try 'Autorefresh [TL _...] tags / Hide a lobby if it is already open' in this version:

StarsCaption v1.15q

Let me know if it works as you need.

It worked fine first but then I took a break and for some reason lobbies started to hang around after each registration. I am not 100% sure if the native setting is supposed to open the lobbies when registering or when the tournament is opening(?) I assume the logic you used here was that the lobby opens with the tournament with this native setting similar than it does with starscaption opening them. However, given that the lobbies opened instantly after registering (after my break) for me it seems like they are either only or also opening with registration. Also tried to restart starscaption but that had no effect whatsoever. If both are happening it has to be some kind of weird phenomena of the stars client. Not sure if it is even relevant for the logic when the lobby opens(?) What do you think?

Hi
There is no this tag in Tag color range, if you mean StarsCaption (888Caption has it there).
I can add it to this option if you need it.


Yeh I need it for stars caption. Thanks if you can.

Hi
This option does only one thing - it hides the lobby off the edge of the screen if it was already open when the table was opened. If the lobby was not open, then the option will work as usual.

Your lobbies opened and continued to be on the table after the break, right? The table opened along with the lobby, but the lobby remained on the screen?
Did the tag update work correctly in this situation?

Initially it worked as expected so tables opened with the lobby and were hided. TL was working fine. Also noticed performance boost with this setup as expected. Then after I paused all my play and continued after short break the lobbies started to open the same time I registered to the tournaments for some reason. So basically I click register and at the same instant lobby pops up. Caption also did not move these lobbies at all once the table did eventually opened. Going to try it couple more times but expecting this to happen again. I think lobbies opening together with registering is client related not sure why caption did not process those then once the table opens(?) Or perhaps the logic is such that it requires the lobby to open at the same time than table initially to hide them(?) So basically if I have lobby open already before the game has started and then the game starts it seems like caption does not move the lobbies at least with this setting on. Not sure if TL is still working when this happens though did not try that yet.


123AA, ok please try again and let me know if you will see any new details.
Also you can try to write a log for me, with it I will have more details:
1. Turn on Options / Logging / Betscript log before starting a session.
2. Take lobby screenshots which remain on the screen (I need tournament numbers)
3. After a session send me the log (StarsCaption.log file from the StarsCaption folder), the screenshots and any other details

Hi, tested some more and I am 100% sure that this is actually how the native setting works these days. So lobbies can open with the table opening or optionally they start to open when registering for some odd reason. I know this because I regged without caption being open and it insta opened lobby when I was registering to a tournament. I must add to the previous message that caption actually does then move these hanging lobbies when the tournament opens and tl is working fine. So what is needed is a small modification or option for caption to always move lobbies when they appear. Maybe it is not ideal because then you cannot manually open lobbies at all but the performance boost this method provided is all worth it imo. Besides if lobby is then needed for some reason I guess you could switch mode from sc. So in short make it "always hide lobbies" mode. What do you think?

If you don't need to see a lobby at all, then you can try just to configure a slot for lobby (Options / Tournament lobby slot) behind the edge of screen.

Thanks! Client lobby is ofc needed but tournament lobbies less so. That is what TL is for after all 😀


How can I change the position of the custom bet box?
Also, could I convert the chips into BB in the native bet box by using StarsCaption?


Can you add an option to hide only "Sit out next hand" checkbox only, without hiding the "Fold to any bet" checkbox?

1. You can move it by right mouse button (while Lock HUD is disabled)
2. No, it is possible via Custom bet box only

If you don't want to use these checkboxes at all, then you can try to use Layout editor / Move elements / Table elements for this
You can move any checkboxes you don't need behind the edge of a table with this option


Hi, my starscaption is closing when I open 10nl zoom tables. Any advice?


Same here - StarsCaption snap closes when I join a Zoom pool. Also, no player HUD panels are working when observing tables.

I'm on the UK Stars client which updated today, so I guess the update is the issue.

I tried this but "Sit out next hand" position doesn't change. Try and let me know if it works for you

I just managed to do it by moving "Left-bottom checkboxes" out of the table, and then bringing "Fold to any bet" checkbox back to the table

Working now for me - thank you!

Ok thanks for report.
I haven't tested this version very deeply, so please let me know if any features stop working with a new poker client version.

Will do. No issues at all yet, seems to be working perfectly. Thanks for sorting so quickly, the 20 minutes I had to play without it were a nightmare!

I actually tried this method. It is not working well. Caption is either re-opening the lobbies or constantly moving them around with the current set of settings available. Would require some modification where it will only ever move those lobbies which client opens once and stack them all outside of the screen with default lobby size.
