> You want that if black checkmates to show that in red and if white mates to show that in blue.
> Another example is when the evaluations is -54.38 that is shown in red and suddenly the engine finds a checkmate then the color is dependent to who is to move and not who checkmates, so if black is to move the color stays red and if white is to move the color changes to blue.
> Also the evaluation 0.00 should not be in either red or blue but instead a different color, maybe green or yellow or black or user defined.
> Fex has a good point, if ChessX is going to use colors to show who is better then the colors need to be always right, and 0.00 evaluation should be a different color since is equal.
