I only use Opera, so that might be the problem...
It's a good feature.
A slight prob is that it has completely replaced the game history - but has no "return to game" button. So when I go into game history from an active game (usually to see why on earth I made that heinous blunder!) I have to use the browser's back button to return to the game.

Edit: OOPS! I interpreted your querie completely incorrecly imatiger! All the below is not really releavnt to your post. Sorry there.
The game history is there too: when you enter, it is at the current point: you can use the game history controls at the top right to go through your game history just like before.
A good bit of design that Russ.
Means you can analyse (a.k.a. analyze) the board from any position in the history. Well done!
Originally posted by belgianfreak One small problem though - if you "take" a piece, then retract the move, the piece stays taken. Tough one to get around I know..
Yeah, this was as designed. The interface suddenly gets a little bit more complcated if I provide this feature. I may add an 'add piece' option at a later date.

that's a little annoying but being able to reset the board from any previous (actual) position after moving pieces around is a real bonus.
I've been using this feature all weekend.....thought I might wear it out ! What would be nice is to have a skip function as well. I find when I analyze and usually print I don't want to return to the game so skipping to the next game would be a nice option !
This might get the "new feature of the year" award !

would it be possible to add the "analyse board' button when viewing public games? This would allow us to analyse other peoples games. I'd like to use it so I could understand the moves of the better players more by analysing thier games when they play each other.
