It's very, very hard to reproduce :<
and i don't have an idea how to do so reliably.
It *does* appear to occur after a handful of moves though
(like Klimmek says).
It's only happened to me a few times (and only with ScidvsPC
which i obviously use more - so perhaps Scid is immune to
it) and may be a subtle bug in tk event loop processing,
which is surely complicated code.
I realise my "update" work-around isn't satisfactory,
if indeed it works at all.
