Deal Generator User Guide

Recipe Collection panel

This is one of several user guides on specific topics. The directory for all user guides is here.

The recipe collection is a place where you can store multiple recipes. The Recipe Colleciton panel offers several buttons.

Vary button: This button generate deals into the deal display panel. It does so by applying dealer rotation, vulnerability rotation, and the hands and number of deals settings from the left side of the web page to each recipe in the recipe collection. It searches for deals that fulfill the Cards settings of the recipes in the colleciton, while also matching one of shaper tab configurations.

Negate button: This button is the same as the Vary button, except that instead of searching for deals that match one of the shaper configuration, it searches for deals that match none of the shaper configurations.

Load Folder button: This button loads all .bcoarecipe files from a folder, and its subfolders, into the recipe collection.

Load Smorgasboard button: This button loads the contents of a single .bcoasmorgasbord file into the recipe collection.

Add Recipe button: Adds the current contents of the Shaper and Cards panel to the recipe collection, and the rotation, hands, and number of deals settings from the left side of the page, as a recipe, to the recipe collection.
