There is a table focus implemented, all tables have a number, and the one with a green number has the focus, where all commands are sent to. You only have to say "Table XX" when changing focus. A automatic change of focus to the table requiring action is probably going to be implemented.

I use PokerShortcuts that border highlights the active Pending table in RED. Can you do this with your software? I know this sounds funny, but seems like too much "work" to continually say "Table X"
At this time, as garvin said, that is shown in green, and you only need to change it when you need to focus to another table.

This lets you choose what table you want action at, as opposed to what the poker software thinks it's the active table. However....

Exactly! Yes, I will implement automatic change of focus to the current table having action. Should be done sometime within 2-3 days.

One problem/question: when playing on Pokerstars, sometimes when I make a voice command there is text typed into the chat box The text isnt sent away to the chat because there is no ENTER sent, but it is still quite annoying. Could this be handled/fixed? I tried to disable chat but no success. The
I believe I solved the issue. Try the latest version (1.3.15) please.
p.s. What OS do you have?

I have to give John and his product a big thumbs up!

I spent a large part of this afternoon with John in finding out why this wasn't working for me. John was very patient and determined to get to the bottom of the error. It turned out to be to do with my language settings. Although I use English - I don't use US English. John made adjustments to the program to sort this out and the program now works for me. It's early days yet but so far I most definitely like and boy do I need it as I've started to get problems with my hands after years of computer use. I hope i can get used to it over the next few days

John's clear enthusiasm for his product and his helpful disposition has given me even more confidence in the product. Good luck dude!
03-24-2011 , 03:33 PM
Thumbs up here too!
I still run XP and I had a bit of trouble with the microsoft speech engine because of that, but nevertheless John has also spent a great deal of time helping me. His soft works great and I am not even a native english speaker!
Pricing is ridiculously cheap. good luck

I've played a little bit more and I think this is going to be a big help for me. I still need to explore the app a bit more. I'm primarily playing sngs on Full Tilt lately - and seeing as the ideal for me would be to not have to use the mouse whatsoever while playing poker.... I'd like to see even more commands available such as...

Register/Unregister
I'm ready
Player notes
Show full tilt main lobby
Close last hand (last hand already available)

John if we have suggestions do you want to see them here or are you going to set up some suggestion voting system or something?

1. Cool!
2. "close last hand" - easy to do, will be there soon
3. "I'm ready" - easy to do, will be there soon
4. "show main lobby" - easy to do, will be there soon
5. "player notes" - this will be pretty difficult to implement, i need to also take care of the table layout (how many players are sitted, 6-table, 9-table, etc)
What i will do, when i'll do it, is this:
- i will allow you to view or edit the notes - if you'll edit the notes, you'll have to write them. The speech recognition isn't that great when it comes to sentences
6. "register/unregister". i need to think about this a bit more. If you want to register, you'll probably also want to specify a certain tournament, and that tournament could be multi table, and so on. i really need to think about this.
7. i'm fine with suggestions here for the moment.

Best,
John

Cheers john, The ideal for me is to try and avoid using the mouse as much as possible. Another thing I thought of when playing is it'd be nice if we could move the windows (both tables and tournament lobbies). I'm not sure how easy this would be to do, but maybe something like 'move tournament lobby 1 20 pixels right'.

Yeah I can imagine this would be tricky. One thought to make it simple, maybe instead of using sentences if you just allowed a few keywords for notes.

- Say "Fold" and it's as if you clicked the Fold button, or checked the "Fold" or "Fold/Check" checkbox when you want to fold a hand.
- In addition to the regular commands, you can also add your own vocal shortcuts, like "steal" meaning, for instance, "bet 85% of the pot"
I think you are wasting your time. No one can use this when multitabling for obvious reasons, so not many players will be interested in this.

One small thing is there any way to check the latest version?

Rubbish.
I'm using it for multitabling, and it will be even better when the auto focus change is implemented.

Hmm, not sure what the "obvious reasons" might be - but you can easily change the current table by saying "table X", and as a side node, I'm implementing "table with focus becomes active table" right now - so that if you don't want to change tables yourself, let your poker software do it for ya

1. About moving the tables with the mouse - I can do it, but it will be pretty low priority, since there are a lot of other things in my TODO list at the moment

Isn't "cascade", "stack", "tile" enough, for now? (that is, choosing one table layout, for now)

2. It could be, I have to think about it a bit It's on my todo list anyway

there will be, soon I plan to do it next week.

at this time, you'll notice a tab called "History" - by reading it, you can compare what's on the site with what you have.

I plan to add a "Get latest version" button on that page - as said, hopefully next week.

Hi John, I really was thinking more about the importance of being able to move tournament lobbies as they are not always positioned where I would like. And unlike Tables, there are no tile , cascase, stack options.

I'm thinking of something like this: how about you move the tournament lobby to a certain position, and then say something like "save position"? Then, wherever you open it, it will be at that position.

Would that be ok?

Well whatever works best - can you get it to work for multiple tournament lobbies doing it that way?

depends the question is: do you usually want to view a tournament's lobby and then close it, the open another tournament lobby, or you want several tournament lobbies to be visible at the same time?

Well if I'm playing <=3 tournaments I idealy want to have the 3 tournament lobbies visible also. If I'm playing more than 3 then it's more the former.
