So CA has this ability too. >And what still confuses me is the eval display, showing some CAP data I suppose. >I still wonder what information is displayed, based on which games/database/...? Eval is from a tree of human (master) evaluations of opening moves. CAP data is shown under the CAP column. You can override evaluations in the Eval tree if you want. > >The automatic game analysis is difficult to use (one has to admit that CB does >not offer this function) Once more, I think this is a matter of opinion. > and the HTML/Javascript is also buggy up to one of the >latest CA 7.1 builds. We discussed this elsewhere - the fact that the DHTML did not work in earlier builds for a browser that was pre-1.0 status, and not officially released until a month or two ago, should not be constituted a bug. CA was released this time last year, after all. CA has other bugs to be sure, but this is not one of them. And for those following this thread, Firefox 1.0 is now supported with DHTML output in the latest builds, as well as CA 8. >I think CB made a huge step forward with the reference functions.
