This page describes how to write a set of sequences for a dance.
-
Create a list for the dance. The list should contain all calls at the level that you're calling and
all calls on all lower levels. For example, if you are writing an A2 dance, your list should
contain all calls on the A2 list and all calls on lower level lists.
-
Create one or more sequence databases (if necessary) to hold the sequences for the dance. Be
sure to set the 'Maximum level' within the sequence database. Existing sequence databases
can be used as well.
-
Edit the sequence databases to set the default list to the list created above in step 1.
-
Use Sequence then New sequence [Graphics] to create new sequences.
-
Print the sequences,
or create a dance
for Call From Screen.
Writing sequences in parallel:
Sequences can be written in parallel instead of sequentially. That is, instead of writing one
complete sequence after another, start about 50 sequences by writing down the first few calls of
the sequence. Then type the (partial) sequences into CSDS via New sequence [Graphics]. Use
Print incomplete sequences followed by Print list to print the sequences with their current
ending formations. Add the next few lines to each sequence and go back &add those lines using
the program.
