[Scidvspc-users] Browsing multiple games

[Steve A <ste...@gm...>]

There's a new feature in subversion - browsing multiple games from the
gamelist and best games widgets.

I've been thinking about this for a while... basically to preview a heap of
game end-positions at once - and couldn't really work it into any other
widget, so here it is.
Below is a summary of the feature (from the help topic). I think it's
fairly well rounded/finished - apart from the fact that it is not an
'endless' widget that scrolls (due to this being technically more
challenging), but other suggestions are welcome.

cheers Steven

*Browsing Multiple Games  Scid vs PC can also browse multiple games (in a
grid format) via right-clicking a selection of games. The idea is similar
to browsing a single game, but with a reduced interface, and more emphasis
on the wheel mouse - which is used to progress through games, and also
resize the boards (using Control+Wheel). This feature is similar to the
small observation boards in FICS (and the default board size is also
determined by Options->FICS->BoardSize). Beside the normal
Left/Right/Home/End key bindings, Control+Enter will load the active
(mouseover) game.   Pressing Control-Left/Right will progress all boards
forward or back, and similarly Control+Home/End will show all start/end
positions.   This feature is also available for the Tree Best Games widget*
