Re: Engine UCI Options?

Hi Chief

You can do this under preferences/engines/startup commands, eg. type in the box

uci
setoption name Threads value 4
setoption name Hash value 1024

to set these example options. Change to suit and add others on new lines. Also tick the box "send startup commands".

Re: Interface options (backburner)

Not sure about this since Chess Position Trainer doesn't look very active either. Has anyone in the US tried ringing Mike to see if everything is ok?

I still have the problem with build 68, but not always (Windows 10). Resizing the board also cause the display to be corrupted.

Re: Problem mit the board

Yes, I had this problem too using Build 66 on a Windows 10 machine. It seems to occur when starting a new eBook. I sent Mike a bug report on it but I don't know if he's seen it yet. I was able to get past the issue by clicking on one of the candidate moves. Once I did that, the graphics corrected i...

Re: Latest Version

Mike I appreciate your efforts to fix bugs. Regarding analysis I agree with Bogg. Users should be able to set whatever limits they please, reasonable or not, within the limits of the computer. Bogg's idea of number = 0 means ignore this limit is a good one. Of course, all this should be made clear i...
