Space bar to play best engine move doesn't work when extension is on • page 1/1 • L1Chess Tools Users Team • lichess.org

Space bar is the keyboard shortcut in lichess to play the best engine move. I've just found out it doesn't work when the extension is on (not sure what space bar does when the extension is on).

Is there a way to retain the space bar shotcut to play the best engine move? Unless there is another shortcut to play the best engine move when the extension is on?

Yes, @Patrizsche! Sorry for answering this late, missed your message.

I am watching a lot of chess YouTube and pressing Space to pause/restart the video, while switching to Lichess for analysis. So I replaced Space with Ctrl-Space to stop me from accidentally turning on computer analysis when I actually mean to start the video. You can just turn off the feature.

Thanks for the info. I deactivated the extension for now... There's too many things that get changed against my will (the timeline tab in the profile is very annoying, and last I checked I couldn't turn it off). Unfortunately there are too many customizable preferences for lichess tools (the list is extremely long vertically), and it's really tough to tune the extension because of this.

Just my two cents. I'm guessing I wasn't using the features enough.

Sorry to hear that, @Patrizsche . You can turn the Profile timeline off now. Also at the bottom of the Preferences page you have a button to turn everything off, then you can opt in to features.
