#334 Pressing 'Pin engine to current position' resets the analysis
One time I left the engine to analyse for about an hour and then wanted to try some variation but did not want to lose the progress of the analysis up till that point (wanted the engine to continue analyzing) and normally pressed 'Pin the engine to current position'. To my surprise that had the opposite effect of what I intended and had lost all progress until that point and has started over. Was expecting to continue the analysis regardless of pinning the engine to a position, because no move has been made.
Just upgraded to 1.5.8 , the issue was also in 1.5.6 but wanted to upgrade before reporting a bug in case it was fixed in the new release.
There is code to prevent this ... but sadly, I missed a tiny little thing. Will be fixed.
