Hi, I'm using chessx in Kubuntu 20.4. The opening dialog, like the save window, does not display any files or directories. Please, how can I report a bug?
ChessX version 1.4.6.0 UNIX GNU Qt5.12.5
Best Regards ... František
Hello Frantisek,
submit bugs here: https://sourceforge.net/p/chessx/bugs/
Describe what you do and what you expect and what you see instead so that I can reproduce it.
If necessary, please attach PGN-files you used or attach screenshots.
Kind regards,
Jens

Hi @danilo-josue ,
1 Which language specifically?
Spanish? (or other?)
I just sent a pull request with Spanish Translation but it will take a few days before the maintainer gets to look at it,
https://github.com/IAHM-COL/chessx/blob/spanish-i18n/i18n/chessx_es.ts
Translation source code is better edited with QtLinguist, which comes with the QtCreator. The TS file can be open with the Linguist, and the gui is self-explanatory, however;
https://doc.qt.io/qt-5/qtlinguist-index.html
You can implement binaries by putting them in data/lang directory, (I believe)
https://github.com/Isarhamster/chessx/tree/master/data/lang
https://github.com/IAHM-COL/chessx/tree/spanish-i18n/i18n
(these are ready up to last code)
5 If you want a TS file for other language, one empty TS file ready to begin translated can be created. If you want help, let me know which language specifically, and I make the TS source if you need me to.
Regards,
Hello, I started using chessx and have question about linking stockfish. In preferences i've installed stockfish, and than when i'm trying to run analisys, stocfish starts, but nothing happens (in stockfisk window where i see chessboard, and also in analisys window). I'm running chessx and stockfish on Mac M1
These things are better suited for the mailing list.
You need to compile stockfish youryelf as the distributed sf is a Gui application which does not work as expected.
