OK

Backup, then try deleteing your engines.dat file. It may be malformed.
Otherwise, send it to me and also the options.dat file, and also the contents of the startup screen.
You can also start in windowed mode with "-nodock"

my files are in attach

[Sergey Ivanov]

i was able to avoid error at 'undock' mode but since my workspace became chaotic i recomment every single window in applicaton to have 'dock' option

Ok.. you seem to have deleted an engine that was initialised at startup.
I will catch this error. Add these 6 lines (but dont include the +) to scid.gui if you care to test - Steven

set engineData [lindex $::engines(list) $n]
+ # sanity check
+ if {[llength $engineData] < 7} {
+ puts "Oops : no data for engine $n"
+ return
+ }
+
set analysisName [lindex $engineData 0]
