Fantastic!  I plan to create some custom boards and fonts and will share them with everyone when they’re ready!

[Chessx-users] Installing New Boards and Fonts

[Wesley Surber <wasurber@gm...>]

Hello!

I have been using ChessX for a few weeks now and absolutely love it!  I noticed that there are extra boards on the SourceForge page and I have also made some custom boards myself, but I am unable to install them without recompiling the binary.  Is there another way to install additional board themes using a completed install?

[Chessx-users] ChessX Interface Translation into Thai

[Pirapong Patumraat <vanpatumraatludwig@me...>]

Dear Sir,

I have been being appreciated ChessX both for Windows and Mac OS X for years since it is a very powerful and attractive chess tool for all levels of chess enthusiasts.

I am a 55-year-old Thai man, based in Bangkok, got retired form work as a high school teacher of English and German and a professional freelance translator. 

ChessX would be more useful for Thai people if it had a Thai version. As one of chess enthusiasts, I am writing to inform you that I can help translate it into Thai.

Faithfully yours,
Ludwig van Patumraat

Stockfish has a uci option to write a log of such communications. Perhaps Komodo does too? That is, can you get the log from the engine rather than from the GUI?

[Chessx-users] Sneak Preview to FICS

[Jens Nissen <jens-chessx@gm...>]

Friends of ChessX,

I have just uploaded ChessX 1.3.0!
See http://chessx.sourceforge.net for details.

The most prominent feature is certainly the ability to observe and play chess on FICS.
See the list of changes below.

*** A note for all of you who want to compile ChessX themselves: *** 
You need Qt5 to play on FICS properly, Qt4 contains some incompatibility which will make FICS features not work well.

*** A note for Ubuntu and elementary users, who want to compile ChessX 1.3.0: *** 
I simply installed Qt5 from the store, added the linguist package from Qt4 (Qt5 linguist is missing in the store), add the developer lib for QtSvg.
QtMultimedia is not available on the store, so you need to comment out the line 12 from chessx.pro (which says  CONFIG += sound).
Link lupdate and lrelease from the Qt4 binaries to the Qt5 binaries and everything else worked fine (call lupdate, lrelease, qmake, make)

*** A note for Mac OS users *** 
Debug builds do have a problem with Sound on latest Yosemite 10.10.3. The problem was not there on OSX 10.10.2. Release builds work fine.

*** Windows ***
As most Windows Users will probably have 64-bit Intel machines, I didn’t bother to create XP or 32-bit versions of ChessX.

Have fun with ChessX and FICS!

Jens

P.S.:
Changes in 1.3.0:

- New Feature: Play games on FICS with telnet or timeseal
- New Feature: Boards now 1:1 with open databases
- New Feature: Remove found items from filter

- New feature: Flip board to side to move while loading game in training
- New feature: Setup Board Dialog with Coordinates
- New feature: #137 Extend Opening tree (Back button)
- New feature: Undo last move in Opening Tree
- New feature: Player Info filters games also for specific color
- New feature: Player Info shows regularly played openings
- New feature: Automatic analysis backward from end of game

[Chessx-users] Auto-Analysis doesn't work - skips to the end of the game

Re: [Chessx-users] Analysing games...

[David Herring <dave@ne...>]

Just some general points...

I am keen to help out with the chessx development, a native Linux with
features to rival scid vs pc would be excellent. I have found that
running the wine versions of both chessx and scid vs pc appear to work
fine on Ubuntu 14.10. The chessx compiled version I made to run
natively has menus that come and go at the top of the application (the
file, edit, view,....menus are not behaving correctly). So I'm
wondering how well tested the Qt version is, and can I help out on
this with testing to start with.

Also be keen to hear anyone's comparison of chessx and scid vs pc.

Thanks Dave

Re: [Chessx-users] Analysing games...

[David Herring <dave@ne...>]

Maybe it's my compile of chessx, but I cannot seem to get it to start
playing through moves to do the analyzing.

The +/- score is in pawns which side stands better at any position, so
nice to see when this changes and by how much throughout game. Some
analysis allows you to select new lines that only change this score by
a given threshold, i.e lines that make a difference.

Thanks Dave

[Chessx-users] Analysing games...

[David Herring <dave@ne...>]

Just started using Chessx - very excited to be able to look over my
games. Three quick questions:-

1/ The auto analysis - how do you make it step through moves to
analyse the whole game.

2/ How do you remove the analysis from the game, so you can redo it
with a longer time interval.

3/ How do you see the +/1 score for each position as you step through a game.

Thanks in advance for any help on using this,
Dave

This allows the removal of all variations - great.

Re: [Chessx-users] Variation display in pgn files not working

[Fex Xef <fsgtae1@gm...>]

Hi,

Thank your for replying. The indentation is not useful in the chessx
example. For example, the "(4" is flush left after a bunch of deep
variations (and for no clear reason). In the ChessBase example, one can
follow where one is the variations by the indent level (also by font type,
but that is less important).

The other issue is that it looks like the chessx mailing list silently
deleted your message, at least the online archive did here:
http://sourceforge.net/p/chessx/mailman/chessx-users/ . This is why I did
not try to post a screenshot. Do you know a way around this?

[Chessx-users] Running two position windows?

[Fex Xef <fsgtae1@gm...>]

Is there a way either to run two copies of chessX or to have two position
windows open at the same time?

I would like to be able to compare similar positions, one in one window
(with associated moves) and the other in a second window (with associated
moves).

I am on a Mac.

[Chessx-users] Variation display in pgn files not working

[Fex Xef <fsgtae1@gm...>]

PGN file variations still do not show up correctly on my Mac, chessX
version 1.2

To see the problem, just try to view any PGN file with variations a few
levels deep.

For example, ChessBase published the results of the recent ARVES Isenegger
tournament here:

http://en.chessbase.com/post/isenegger-memorial-study-tourney .

The pgn file for the Aberman study, the second study on the page, does not
display correctly.

(There is a "download PGN" link to that study at the bottom of the study,
but I cannot paste the link.)

Can someone please either fix the problem or explain how to work around it?
I have not found any setting that fixes this.

Also, am I posting in the wrong mailing list here or something? I am
confused about why there has been no acknowledgment to my recent messages
about this issue.

[I posted about this back in July, was told the problem would be fixed.]

Re: [Chessx-users] chessx > boards

[ChessX <jens-chessx@gm...>]

I'll put that into a change request, as it is not entirely easy, I will add a rough sketch what needs to be done.
The first steps on the way will be in the upcoming release, where databases and views are coupled more tightly.

I think it should be allowed to open games on other boards from one database otherwise analyzing is a little problematic and force the user to create a lot databases.

Re: [Chessx-users] chessx > boards

[Jens Nissen <jens-chessx@gm...>]

Each database has only one active game and each board is associated to one database.
So yes, you can open a second or more boards and assign different games to them,
but each of these games has to be from a different database to make use of this feature.

I congratulate you on this important project. Excellent software for the 
study of chess!
I would like to include between languages​ ​, the Spanish language as 
there are a lot of Latin American players who would like to use this 
wonderful application.
Thank you very much and best regards.
