I can-- and do!-- manually add a D to my games each time I make a move. But to do so I have to make my move, switch to comment editor to delete the old (though I could just leave them) and add the new.
I use the printouts both to take games with me to consider positions, but could also use an auto-diagram feature to print out a selection of the many tactical training positions I have, which would also be great. I hadn't considered the auto-diagram feature, but that would also be quite useful for my training and potentially for chess club operations. I realize that some or all of these may not be the kind of thing that see widespread use! c On Sat, Dec 25, 2010 at 2:50 AM, Alexander Wagner <a.wag...@physik.uni-wuerzburg.de> wrote: > On 12/25/10 10:06, Joost 't Hart wrote: > > Hi! > >>> Is there a way to automatically have a diagram inserted at the final >>> position of a set of filtered games when exporting to HTML?
