There are walkthrough videos at the Academy: -

You can also set up it up so it looks just like other software.

That part is just the odds display which can be set to normal or reverse on the main banner

As Euler said above there are settings within Bet Angel to make it look and feel like any other software, for example these ready-made ladder settings will make your ladder screen appear more familiar to you (and they can be edited by you if you want to make any further edits after importing them)

Welcome to BetAngel waccoe

You can import the settings as I've just downloaded the file that Dallas pointed you towards and it imported fine for me
You need to make sure that you're on the ladder screen, then press the spanner (1 in screenshot) then press where it says 'settings' on the screen that comes up (just above where I've placed the 2).

to do a keep bet, towards the bottom of the screen you can click either 'Keep All' or next to the stake bet amount for your unmatched bet you can toggle between Cancel, Keep, Take SP. You then need to press 'Submit Changes'

The images in the thread show where to find the import button for each file type

But there is this post which show where to find the import button for all the various types of settings, layout files you can import throughout Bet Angel etc
viewtopic.php?f=62&t=23096

Unless you are using Bet Angel Trader, if so then that doesn't support the importing of files

Overall position is in the column below trade profit, you can click on any cell within that column to green up

I highly highly recommend reading the following

I know it's super-easy to just want to jump into absolutely everything but all is answered within here

You will do, and you'll find its a 'lot' different to geeks in terms of functionality, but there's also a ton of tutorials, documentation, examples and video's etc that will explain every option and feature to you
