I can´t get Smartnotes to work with NOIQpoker and I have no idea why it isn´t working.
I must have done something wrong along the way.

1.I installed Smart Notes in a map called Smart notes.Should the program be installed in a special map instead?
2.I opened up the preference file and set the path to
C:\Poker\NoIQ Poker\History\Username for Ipoker.

I started the poker client and Smartnotes and the Smart Notes window popped up.But nothing more happens.I was under the impression that Smart Notes would recognize the table and that the player names was going to show in the Smart notes window as soon as Smart Notes would have recognized the table.

If anyone could help me I would appreciate it. Because Ipoker could really not have a worse notes function.

Hi.

I don´t think it really matters in what directory you install it and the path you wrote in the preferences is the same one I use.

Do you single or multi table?

I multitable mostly 4 tables with my screen set at 1600x1200 and Smartnotes only detects the 2 tables on the right of my screen. I have to drag the ones on the left side over to the right to make it work.

There is another thread about Smartnotes about 5-6 pages back in this forum, but lately there has been only questions, no answers from the programming guys like Dave or Roland. I really think you should look it up and read it, you might find it useful.

Yeah I´ve already read it.It was useful. And yes I multitable but Smart notes does not recognize any tables at all and I use the same resolution as you 1600x1200.
So I think I´ve missed something.But I have a really hard time to understand what has gone wrong since I´m able to launch the program.
Is there any other configurations than setting the file path that you have to do?

Have you done the "layout" step?

Layout->choose iPoker 10 player table -> Take screenshot(you do something with ctrl+d or similirar) -> Submit.

Restart smartnotes too.

This was what I missed when i dident got it working before.

Hi.

I haven´t done this. Could someone please explain this in more detail? Maybe I´m just lucky to have any tables working at all.

Info please!!

I can't get the automatic player detection to work eigther. I use Betfred poker.

I have set up the Layout function, as suggested in this thread, but I don't think this has anything to do with automatic player detection. It is as it says - a layout! it sets where the notes will pop up. I have set the preferences to the correct path C:\Program Files\{name of skin}\history\{user name} as recommended http://www.overcards.com/wiki/moin.cgi/SmartNotes. Not in the preferences file itself (as Apanage) but in the preferences menu in the system tray icon. I have also tried to hardcode it in the preferences file. Autodetection of players does still not work.

As I have done everyting by the book, I can conclude that SmartNotes is a crappy program. But I would like to be proved wrong, because iPoker notes is by any stardard some crab. Can anybody help with this?

Best regards,

First of all - Thank you for taking the time to develop this program by the way Roland.

But:
Ok, I didn't see that you have to manually download the layout.ini to get some hotspots that makes any sence (areas you need to click in order to open the notes pop-up window for a soecific player). Why is this not included in the zip file? very bad.

Also in order to get the notes working yo have to click these hotspots. It is explained nowhere on http://www.overcards.com/wiki/moin.cgi/SmartNotes what the hotspots are. It is not rocket seience, but take two lines to explain it for crying out loud (this is for Roland).

I could not get the layout function to work, the coordintes does not cahnge after you have taken the screenshot, placed the noteboxes and hotspots and submitted the hole thing. But the coordintes in the layout.ini, that you can download here on the webpage http://www.overcards.com/wiki/moin.cgi/SmartNotes are quite good.

sorry for the typoes, but I submitted the last message by mistake before previewing. I hope it makes sence.

soecific player = specific player

It does make sense but even after I did all those things it doesn´t work for me...

Is there another note taking prog for Ipoker maybe?

Hey guys. Sorry I missed this, haven't been around much lately.

This is wrong. What smartnotes does (when you have the layout/prefs set correctly) is it lets you click on a hotspot near a player on the table to bring up a note on him. Only after you've done this and written a note will the player show up in the SmartNotes window. Also keep in mind that the list of players is only updated when the list is first loaded, so you need to switch between "all" and "today" to reload the list if you want to for example take more notes on a player that has left the table.

You need to set the locations for hotspots (where you click to make the notes pop up) and notes (where the notes pop up). Quoting from the wiki:
Also note that you have to close the table window and then click "Submit" in the Layout window. I'll update the wiki with this little piece of info one of these days.

SmartNotes doesn't work on tables that are located to the left of the primary monitor. This means that if you use multiple monitors, you want to have them set up so that the primary monitor is to the far left. It also means that if your leftmost tables are slightly off-screen then it probably won't work - I suspect this is your problem. I'm hoping for Roland to come out with a fix for the hotspots (I think the problem lies there but haven't found the courage to look at that code).

HPR, could you be a bit more specific on what's not working? Do you get any error messages in the log files (in the main SmartNotes directory)?

It work now...
Dont know why maybe because I restarted my PC.

Thanks!
