Go up one level in this thread


Will CM9000 have a "book-like" notation display, including comments and variants
visible and clickable at the same time, as known from *most other
chessprograms*?

I think this would really be a big usability improvement over the old 2 columns
move list, which just isn't competitive.

It may be that not many CM users are requesting that, but if this is so, I
suspect that is because many CM users (out of the expert's range) just don't
know the advantages of that notation display.

It may sound like a minor detail compared to all the engine & settings stuff
etc., but actually I think this is crucial for the CM GUI. I can't imagine that
a majority would disagree about that. 2 columns move list is for the museum,
"book-like" notation is strongly required IMO, *now*.
