[Scid-users] Remove help box from comment editor

Hello guys! When using scid's comment editor I now get a white help box that is very annoying. It constantly blocks the actual edit window where the user is trying to draw arrows etc. The message the white box gives begins with "instert/remove mark...etc" Can anyone please tell me how to turn

Attached my patch for this one. This concludes the efficiency story as far as I would like to address it. I kept the limited-set-of-corrections [-max N] operational on the tkscid API, with the convention that if N = 0, this is taken as "unlimited." Both the spellchecker and the cleaner use this

[Scid-users] Bug with closing locked tree window

2009-03-03 Thread Joost ´t Hart
Hi, [CVS - Linux] 1) Start scid 2) Do not open a database, so we work in clipbase 3) Ensure the pgn game notation window is shown. 4) Enter a few moves on the board, say 1.d4 Nf6 2.c4 e6 3.Nc3 5) Open your reference database (board will show initial position) 6) Open the tree window. Give it all
