Just my opinion. > Kurt Kurt and Michael, If johan wanted to to use my settings (or any text based settings) in the GUI, all johan would have to do is fix the GUI so it accepts more precise numbers. If the engine accepts the precision, why can't the GUI? I'd be surprised if that isn't fixed for the 10th edition. I do think I could convert the text settings to a GUI setting if I knew exactly what the conversion rate is. I have some settings in my GUI AND in text based format. Maybe I can figure it out from that. If any of you are experienced converting the settings I'd appreciate any help.
