[Scidvspc-users] Thicker arrows?

[Gerardo F. <gf...@gm...>]

Hi, Steve and the rest,

I go on with the comment editor, mostly because I am planning to
record some chess videos and I want to use Scid/ScidvsPC.

When using arrows to talk about diagonals, columns, possible plans,
etc., they are almost no use for something like a video because they
are very thin. In addition, they don't even reach the middle of the
destination square, but they stop once inside. Would it be possible to
make them thicker and longer?

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

Hi Alan,

Sorry, but i'm not too interested in Scid's LaTex features.
I know it's a nice format with a lot of  history, but it's an absolute
devil to work with.
If anyone makes reasonable patches, i'll be glad to include them.

PS - i'm still cleaning up the docking system. It seems mostly finished :)
As soon as i debug it on OS X, i might ready Scid vs PC 4.9, but I'm still
fairly busy. Recent other tweaks include the ability to hide the
gamelist buttons via right-clicking the gamelist, not starting engines
at Docking start-up , and binding 'Space-Bar' to engine stop/start.

Carlsen vs. Anand. Bring it on !

[Scidvspc-users] Printing Games with LaTeX (Help or Feature Request)

[Alan W. <a.c...@gm...>]

Hi Steveand community,

I've been printing individual games and game collections by exporting 
them to Latex. However, there seems to be two essential components 
missing that I believewould enhance the printouts: For game collections, 
away to number each game; and for each ply of moves, thechess engine's 
evaluation.

When evaluating one's own games with Stockfish (or some other engine,) 
this excellent feature wouldhelpto evaluate the estimated positional 
value of the move. And it would be even more helpful when combined 
withinserted variations.

Example:

*Game 1*
Myaskov I
Alekhine, Alexander

19031 - 0  D43

1 . d4 d5 [0.00]
2. c4  e6          [+0.15]
3. Nc3  Nf6     [+0.18]
4. Nf3  c6        [+0.25]
5. Bg5  Be7    [+0.20]
6. e3dxc4     [-0.12]
7. e4 h6         [-0.18]
8 Bxf6  Bxf6 [-0.25]
  ...

I'm not a programmer or a LaTeX practitioner, but I've tried using the 
following code to enumerate the games. The problem is that each game 
will need to be wrapped with the'enumerate' environment.

\begin{enumerate}
\item

{\bf
$\circ$ Myaskov, I\\
$\bullet$ Alekhine, Alexander\\
   \\
1903  \hfill 1-0 \hfill D43\\
}
\begin{chess}{\bf
1.d4 d5 2.c4 e6 3.Nc3 Nf6 4.Nf3 c6 5.Bg5 Be7 6.e3 dxc4 7.e4 h6 8.Bxf6 Bxf6
9.e5 Be7 10.Bxc4 Nd7 11.O-O Nb6 12.Bd3 c5 13.dxc5 Bxc5 14.Ne4 Be7 15.Rc1
Bd7 16.Qe2 Bc6 17.Rfd1 Nd5 18.Bb1 Qb6 19.b3 Nf4 20.Qb2 Bxe4 21.Bxe4 Rd8
}\end{chess}
{\bf 1-0}

\end{enumerate}

Hopefully I was clear enough, your help is greatly appreciated.

Hello Steve,

I just can see your response sorry for that.

I already have installed the 4.8 not docking version, I need to 
uninstall it? (how I do that if I compiled it previously?) or I can 
install the svn version with no problems?

Re: [Scidvspc-users] Window Docking beta

[Dale H. <dal...@go...>]

Hi Steve,

I'm a recent convert to SCIDvsPC from mainline SCID... I've applied your
beta on my Win7 box and while it works fine from what I can see (I've only
had a little play with it), the time it takes to open has increased rather
dramatically.

Opening the app - without loading any database with it - takes over 2 and a
half minutes. Most of this time is spent displaying no information to the
UI, so I originally thought it was crashing silently.

Startup window text is provided below. As you can see it's loading player
photos and a large spelling file. I can try opening the app without these,
but it was loading quite quickly before applying the new .exe.

Let me know if you need more info, the docking seems to work great in all
other regards, possibly better than in SCID - as I said, I haven't had a
proper play with it.

Cheers
Dale

[Scidvspc-users] Window Docking beta

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

Window Docking is working and in subversion.
Subversion check out is something like
svn co https://scidvspc.svn.sourceforge.net/svnroot/scidvspc scidvspc
Here is a windows binary/gui (which can be placed in "\bin" with the full
install of ScidvsPC-4.8.exe).
http://sourceforge.net/projects/scidvspc/files/windows-beta/scidvspc_20130331.zip/download

The feature is enabled and configured by Options->Windows.
There are a few differencess with mainline Scid.
The main board context menu is different (you can hide
stuff via this menu) Like Scid, you can dock
FICS/pgn/gamelist/comment editor/engines/tree. And extra to
Scid you can dock the playerinfo , bestgame, book and
crosstable, but not the tacgame/seriousgame/ECO browser
You can use the options "-dock" and "-nodock" from the
command line, but using "-nodock" will reset the
default docking layout (as a measure of error recovery).

There seems few bugs on windows and less on Linux :). But my
non-genuine win7 still throws harmless errors when program closes,
and i'm curious if anyone with an genuine/update win7 or
win8 has the same problem.

Whats happening with the tree window and best games is a
little complicated. It works for me but if you have issues,
pls find out how to replicate them and let me know.

BTW, Scid-4.4 is out. It's not a bad interface, but the new
filter stuff/sort doesnt need much serious prodding before
it falls over.

I'm more aware of little bugs in our filter too, so i'll try
to fix them sometime before next release.

Speaking of which, ....

The clocks should be next to the live game board, whether digital or 
"analogue." And, the digital font sucks and isn't configurable.

Someone playing or observing on FICS should easily be able to see both 
the board and the console at the same tie. And, when observing, I like 
to have the tree view of the database and/or an engine visible at the 
same time. It's hard with separate windows scattered all over.

Something else to consider, ....
I run two screens. The are pretty isolated in that I cannot drag windows 
from one to the other, they are displays: 0.0 and 0.1. By this means I 
have programs started from one display open on that same display rather 
than, as on Windows, choose one at random.

Of all the desktop managers on linx around, FVWM supports the setup 
best, and that means testing on Debian or a derivative, or maybe Fedora. 
GNOME almost does it, but it has a bug or two.

Anyone who wants to play with this but lacks the hardware can set up a 
virtual machine in, maybe, VirtualBox

It would be useful to me if SCID* would allow me to open a new undocked 
window on another display. Maybe in future this could be extended to 
share selected windows remotely for coaching?

Re: [Scidvspc-users] Window Docking feature

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

Hopefully i'll get a windows binary and svn commit happening over
easter. Here is the latest patch though.
http://scidvspc.sourceforge.net/tmp/docking.patch.gz

There's been a lot window focus issues and geometery issues to resolve. And
if a docked engine fails to start, mainline Scid crashes but hopefully
i've fixed that bug.
I've still been working on bug-fixing, so several windows havent been
docked yet: tree,
bestgames, comment editor, player info are all penciled in.

PS. Magnus is looking a good thing, but it's a tough tournament.
(Great to see Gelfand help him out!)
To follow the game live on FICS, just login and type "ob gmcarlsen"
and "ob gmaronian" (etc)

It looks like very likely that Levon will end up with a draw, putting

Big windows could docked under the main board, as a tab, ad with Scid.

That way, one could have a readable game list window even with a notebook.

a minimimal board + telnet that uses half screen, that's what i need, i 
use scid with half screen 13xx large and i dont understand why should be

windows to read messages and to chat.

Very nice Steve- Thank you!

I'm assuming that the databases row will adjust as several of them are 
opened.

Keep up the good work.

for me it would be nice just if no popup comes at all, no match request, 
no you lost popup and no freeze everything i do until popup is clicked.
It would be nice also a simple telnet fics windows with no buttons, 
just: windows telnet, board to play, and that's all.

ciao e grazie :D

Hi all,
That's a very very nice addition to scidvspc!
Given the whole polemic about the "merge" we've learn that the docking feature is what stops many people to use scidvspc.
I believe it's a good idea to add it for our scid-no-bugs-vsPc ;-)

Steven did you try it on OSX ? 
If not, I subscribe!

I guess the FICS window can stay out of docking mode but if it is possible to assign it to the main area it could still be useful.

Thanks and congrat' Steven!

[Scidvspc-users] Window Docking feature

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

Anyway, i have the dockable windows feature more or less working (see attached)
Scid doesn't dock the crosstable, player info (and some others) but
both of these seem good candidates for docking to me.

I'm not sure about FICS though... Enrico ? Our FICS window is just too
big. Should we dock it ?

I suppose you arer talking about FICS. Maybe i should substitute the
three "No Draws, No Abort, No Adjourn" menus and just have one "No
popups" menu item.
