Hey All,
I'm trying to get some ideas on how to work this. I have an app that is used to judge contests. Each judge gets a list of names along with their bib numbers and they have to rank them 1 through xx. My current iteration worked fine, the judge selected the contestant, then picked the placement number down at the bottom of the screen. But then I was told the number of contestants would go from max of 20 to max of 80. As you can see from the image, anything over 20 contestants the font gets so small for the placement numbers that they can't determine what number they're choosing.
So I'm trying to come up with something else. One idea I had was to use a wheel or some such on each line. I have a mockup of that in the file below. I found the ASWheelPicker library, which is pretty close, but would need to be able to select side to side due to space.

Has anyone seen something that would work? Either a sideways wheel or something else that would work in the space I've got?

Thanks,
Jim

My suggestion: 20 Buttons numbered 1/5/10/15/20/...
Long press gives you a combo box with the numbers in between so long press 15 will give you 16/17/18/19.
This also solves your decimal problem. The can quickly use the 1-100 and if they want to insert someone in between they can use the long press.
