What Weights Do You Use?

For HandiFast? Figure it's a free program... my preference thus far has been to put emphasis on FM, PC, PS, DS and the surface

You're probably on the right track choosing a few factors and setting the weights for them. I'm also a firm believer in track-specific settings rather than a one-size-fits-all approach. Right now you have to use trial and error in order to see what works as there's no database capability or batch processing to make the process easier. Handi was working on adding some database functions, but the last I read about that was at least a year ago, and probably two. I was going to add batch processing to HHXv3 but that project has stalled as I really don't feel much like writing code. Some people have made inquiries about it recently, so maybe I will get back to it.

Best of luck.
