The best way I've figured out is to make a custom report and add the relevant stats, but tbh I'm finding the available stats in reports a little disappointing. The stats seem kinda random - like, there's "Turn check" but not "turn bet" or "turn raise" or anything along those lines. I really like the way that HM shows the action in between each street in its Hands tab - like, it'll say
[flop] XC [turn] XR [river] BC - which means you c/c flop, c/r turn, bet-call river - thus allowing you to look at a tiny amount of space and reconstruct exactly how the hand played out. This is a huge improvement over PT2, where you pretty much had to look at the HH to figure out how it played.
Also, I kinda miss the way PT2's game notes tab had two panels (where the lower panel had details on the hand selected in the upper panel, like every players' cards (if known), how much money they won/lost, etc).
We plan on having functionality similar to the Game Notes tab in PT2.
You've gotta keep in mind that I've been focusing most of my energy on implementing major features. Once that's done, I can add the polish, which are all the nice little features that really make a program shine.
We've been focusing on a solid foundation, and it's paying off. Instead of dealing with major bugs in code written months ago, we're mostly dealing with bugs in code written just recently.
We're also focusing on good design rather than rushing major features out the door. That means we're able to add nice smaller features with minimal work. An example of how our solid foundation is helping us is that I just started on iPoker support this morning. I'm almost done with the initial coding and I hope to have it to alpha testers tonight. I'm talking support for the XML files, the PT2 exported files and the datamined files. I'm also talking full Hud support. All in one day! Naturally, there will be bugs that will need to be worked out, but that just goes to show how our philosophy is paying off.
We don't have all the nice shiny features yet (they are coming, I can promise you that), but what we have is a solid foundation that will allow all sorts of interesting features to be rapidly developed with relatively few bugs.
