How do i show my top 5 champ leader before and after race
Hi Guys,
i know it's probably a stupid question but i managed to build my personnal overlay 1 year ago, i never acheived to undestand ( without any coding knowloedge ) if i can add a widget that will show my top 5 leaders before the race, then show it at the end after the race.
I actually had designed my top 5 widget in photoshop, all my labels are correctly place and i also have all season standings in File Maker pro in wich i can import CSV file and this software extract the data....
I am juste stuck there i do not know if ATVO give me the possibility to get the info from the file i can create with file maker pro and how to do it...
Or i need coding skill to be able to acheive this.
As u can see in the image below, file maker pro already give me the possibility to show point after 1,2,3 or 4 race... how can i just get that data on the screen on my stream.
I appreciate your help and here some image of what i am aiming to do.
Thanks

Do you mean the top5 in the championship (not this particular race) before and after the race? We support championship points and their live update, and to get it on the screen you need to use some scripting and spreadsheets. Look here for more details: https://atvo.appgineering.com/Forum/Thread/69

Yeah i mean the top 5 championship leaders from our private league, and we do the stream with the replay later so we are not live.
That's why actually i use file make pro so i can at the start of the stream show ( after 3 races the top 5 leaders )
then when the race is over i can just click "after 4 races" to have the updated scoring.
From what i can understand there is no other way to do it except by coding.
Because File make pro give me the opportunity to create PDF i was thinking i can somehow link it.
I already had read your post on championship and i do understand nothing :-(
I don't know filemaker pro. Are you using it to somehow automatically calculate the new points of the drivers after the race? And if so where is it getting the information from (which finish positions, how many points to award each driver, etc)? That is exactly the info that ATVO also would need to determine your new championship standings.
You can easily import a spreadsheet with the current standings, but if you want to show an update of them after the race (or even during the race) based on the finish positions, then there must be some logic that determines how many points to award each driver. That logic is not something we can build in, because it depends on your league, especially if you want to award bonus points for things like fastest lap or whatever.
Therefore this logic must be in a script somewhere. In essence what the script needs to do is:
- For each driver determine how many points to award, based on their finish position and other data (e.g. fastest lap, pole, etc)
- Add those points to the imported standings to update a widget
