Re: [Scidvspc-users] Question regarding the training feature (tree window)

Hi Andreas

I think your step 3 is wrong. This is how it works for me -

1. open a database and tree.
2. make sure it is your move, and select the training option in the tree window
3. Make a move - Scid will then play a move from tree.  If your move
takes out of tree, no move is made.

Obviously , this feature is not too polished.
