Feature request: Lichess Study improvement ideas

@MilsBees
If you have a lot of studies you can also do what "jomega" did to organize his studies.

@Bishop1964 That is pretty epic, but I'm nowhere near ready for that. Maybe one day :)

I like the copy variation idea. Can you give me more details? Perhaps I could help.

@TotalNoob69 Basically I originally made a study for the Sicilian with a chapter on the Taimanov and a chapter for the Kan. Those chapters each quickly became very bulky obviously, so I wanted to split them out further into say a chapter for 5. Bd3 and a chapter for 5. Nc3 in the Kan.

Now I have to create a new chapter and play out the moves again one by one to get the same line I already had in my Kan chapter. If I could right click on a move/line and choose "Copy to new chapter" or something to that effect, I could easily create new chapter for particular lines if they end up becoming bulkier than I had originally thought.

I usually start with a single chapter for something without knowing how deep I'll go into that line so it doesn't make sense yet to make multiple chapters. I often only realise that later when I figure out I like a certain line and want to analyse it deeper.

@MilsBees First of all you can copy from another chapter when you create a new one, then delete what you want. But also, because you asked for it, I added the option in LiChess Tools of right clicking on a position in a tree and copying to clipboard the PGN for all the previous moves and any branching continuations.

You can then create a new chapter and paste the PGN there. Tell me how it went!

@TotalNoob69 Wow, I feel silly. I hadn't noticed the different tabs when creating a new chapter. That should do nicely!

I will test the Lichess Tools option later (that's a Chrome extension correct?) and let you know, thanks!

Yes, Chrome extension. Thanks!

@TotalNoob69 Just tested it. Works great! Thanks so much!

In fact, it had a little bug. Anyway, version 1.6.4 will have the option to hide the friends box and see it as a menu on top. Maybe that's better.

I would like to hide the chat window with a keyboard shortcut. I don't need the chat window. I need a bigger window for the chapter list. Would it be possible to add this option in Lichess Tools?
