It would be nice, if my thoughts of a correspondence game would be available after the game.
by that i mean if i switch to the analysis board i can enter various variations i'm thinking about. but if i leave the analysis board all those are lost. it would be nice if these variations (with manual comments and annotation) would be stored similar to the study section or even within a study so after a correspondence game the player can recall what he was thinking and learn from his mistakes.
what do you think about?
I sometimes use the " Notes " during a game.
Then I can see the variations I was thinking about during the game and I go to the analysis board to see if it's good or not.
Notes are saved for ever.
But I think the Study is already the best solution to save your games and include annotations.
But if i understand similar posts in this forum correctly, you are not allowed to use a study while playing the game, because of the possibility to enable the engine in it. Which is an obvious reason to not allow it.
therefore i'd wish that it would be preserved in the analysisboard of the correspondance game and exportable to a study after the game was finished.
Of course, I mean I go to the analysis board after the game, not during.
I understand what kind of feature you want and it may be a good idea, yes.
ah i see. well i've tried the notes allready - but it's a very small window and it's hard to write structured variants in it. and of course the comfort is missing :)
Yes not very useful for a whole game but interesting for the openings or some tricky checkmate moves for example.
The study is the perfect tool for you. It can be used as a saved analysis board.
yeah that's why i suggested a study like behaviour in the analysis board.
the study itself is only an option after the game is finished, i'd like to have my thoughts saved right then when i had them, and not have to recall them a month later or make additional notes and enter them manually afterwards
