It is only one of many problems with the new Chessbase GUI (F7/H8/S6) which
Chessbase refuses to fix.  They seem only interested in working on the server
side of the GUI and ignoring all the problems with the other side where normal
games are played.  I can only guess they are heading towards a time when they
will charge money for the server use so it has priority.
