Hi Patrick, I am using MacBook Air 2020 (not M1), 11.3 Big Sur, tcl/tk 8.5.0, Scid 4.71. I also use a logitech trackman mouse/trackball (2 buttons). Scid I operate in docked mode only. Scid behaves differently in docked and undocked mode, in fact this is a major source of troubles, so you may wish to try both ways. My notation window is docked not underneath the board, but to the right. > - When a game is loaded, in the move list window (PGN window) , left click > mouse seems not working ? Right click opens contextual menu AND positions > the right move in the main screen ( what the left click should do ). Of course your mouse must work correctly in other applications, correct? Just checking. :) In Scid, both my trackpad and mouse operate differently than yours. Right-clicking the PGN (notation) window is the same, it selects the move, positions the board, and opens the context menu. Left-clicking the PGN is different, for me it selects the move and positions the board. > -If I move in the main window (chessboard) with the mouse (scrolling) or the > keyboard (arrow keys) , or with the arrow keys, the focus of the PGN window > is not updated. My mouse lacks a scroll wheel, if I scroll the board with the trackpad it repositions the PGN window and updates the board. Also right-clicking on the board goes back one move, both on the board and in the PGN. "... the focus of the PGN window is not updated." This part is not clear to me. Are you expecting the PGN window to now receive focus when you do something in the board window? The only way to change focus is by left-clicking. The board and PGN should be synchronized, but the focus only changes by clicking one or the other. > Are there other users on Mac?

But I find Scid is definitely quirky. Just now I loaded a different game from the Game List, and the keyboard arrows stopped working in the PGN window. But I opened the Help window (undocked!), positioned it to the side, and suddenly the PGN window started responding to the keyboard. So we can say that Scid is not perfect.
