I think this is one thing I've never been able to figure out. How to change dealer in teaching table movie?

Hi from memory the dealer is set 1st board N, 2nd E, 3rd S, 4th W
If you want North to be dealer you need to load the hands in
board1,5,9,13 etc

I could be completely wrong, its been a while since I used this :P

What if i have a presaved board to load? Short of typing in all cards again at the correct number, is there no other way?

Tried it, doesn't work when uploaded to teaching table. Doesn't even work when deleting all the mb and pc commands.

I just tested the following and it's working for me:

If you have a single hand in the .lin file, open it in a text editor (like notepad).

At the start of the hand where it says qx|o1|, change that to qx|o#| where # is an appropriate board number (o2 will get you Dealer = East, o3 = South, o4 = West).

That should make the hand appear in the right 'slot' in the bridge movie screen, and when you send it to the table it should have the right dealer.

Hope that helps,
Susan
