[Bug-gnubg] Few bugs and suggestions

[Hugh Sconyers]

Hi

 

You guy are amazing at getting things done.

 

I have just download the 8-31-03 build.  Adding the id's to the output and copy is a great addition imo.

 

These are a few things I have found or suggestions.

 

1.  If you use 'new' and click position nothing happens.  ie you can't edit the position.

When position is clicked it should require either 'match' or 'money game session' to be clicked.  Also, what is the difference between 'game' and 'money game session' on the new screen.

 

2.  If you use 'new' and 'game' or 'match' and then use 'edit'.  If you clear the board, all the checker disappear.  The old way was better imo. 

ie  the 15 checkers show in the off box.

 

 

3.  When you have a position and click 'evaluation' the output screen is too short.  The last line of text you can

see is "Cube analysis'.  Of course you can make the box bigger each time, but 'save setting'  does not save this setting.

I am using screen setting of 1280 x 1024 .

 

4.  Then happens when you are in edit mode.  Start a new match or session.  My setting will cause a roll and one side to play so I click stop.

Then I click and clear the board and set a position up.  Up to this point all is well.  Now if the wrong side is on roll (think you have to have the top of the board on roll for this to happen) I click to make the correct side on roll (still in edit mode)  and the position changes back to the original position.  Of course, if I remember to put the right side on roll before setting up the position everything works fine, but I seem to forget.

 

5.  Say you are playing a match and you click 'new' to start a new match.  When the new match starts the text in the box at the bottom ( ie where is say 'Top rolls 2 and Bottom rolls 3') get overwritten.

 

Best regards,
