Q. Jeff, how do I get Morning Line Race Low to take a number with a decimal instead of a whole number?
A. Morning Line Race Low is one of the factors controlled by Dynamic Filters. Suppose you want to define Morning Line Race Low in a UDM at a min of 2.5 instead of 2. Here's how:
1. In the UDM Wizard, select FILTERS as your factor.
2. Click the Dynamic Filter Tool Button.
3. In the Dynamic Filter Tool, select Morning Line Race Low as your factor. Select ALL classes and ages as your context. Select MIN (min pos value) as your behavior. Select Prompt for Value as your numeric cutoff and key in 2.5. Notice that the filter code in the preview window is shown as ]ALL]MIN2 which I assume is where your question is coming from. Don't worry about that just yet. Click the Add Filter Button to move the filter code to the big preview window. Then click Save and Close to write all of the filter codes in the big preview window to the UDM Definition.
4. After the Dynamic Filter Tool closes, look inside the filter codes textbox in the UDM Wizard. There you will see all of the filter codes that are part of the UDM Definition.
Manually edit the ML Race Low filter code.
Change it from:
]ALL]MIN2
to:
]ALL]MIN2.5
and hit the Save button.
That's it! From this point forward the UDM will have a min Morning Line Race Low of 2.5 instead of 2.
