I have two problems. Any help would be greatly appreciated.
Recently on CT ART, whenever I input a move, the notation window displays some weird characters instead of the normal figurine algebraic notation. For example, instead displaying a figurine king in the notation window, it comes up with c/b1 - there's something wrong with the font I think, I'm not sure. Any idea how to correct this??
The second problem is that after solving exercise 461, it does not register it as 'correct', so everytime I click 'practice', it does not go to the next exercise, always exercise 460. Whenever I solve eercise 461, it doesn't come up with the smiley face to say the exercise has been solved.
Thanks for your time.

Originally posted by skimsI also had this problem myself, and sometimes when i completed an exercise the pieces would move ultra fast.

yes I've got Vista, why would that be a problem? lol
I haven't heard of this problem with CT-Art before. It would be interesting if someone who had it on XP then tried it with Vista.
I have a sneaky suspicion we've found the cause of the problem.
I don't have it in front of me, but I know there's a setting in the preferences related to the font issue. I'm not sure if you can just avoid it by changing to the letter notation instead of the figures or what, but I remember that somehow you can resolve the font problem there.
Originally posted by skimsit had happenned to me when I had uninstalled a chess program. probably it had deleted the common font files on its way. somehow your font files shold have gone missing too.

If you could locate the font files in the CT-Art setup directory, you may copy them into c:\windows\fonts.
if none of this works, I could send you my font files.
Originally posted by skimsthere's no problems with vista + ct-art. the various things that don't work in ct-art work equally badly on other os' as well.

don't know about the font thing, but the 460-problem is something you'll just have to live with. I suggest you keep track of the problem number manually, write it down in a text file.
ct-art is one of the worst coded piece of chess software there is, but it does its training job well. you'll just have to get used to the various annoyances...
