Pascal,
I had tried compiling in a fresh directory, but renaming ~/.scid did the
trick. I was able to recreate the problem by clicking Options -> Chessboard
-> Piece Style -> USCF. I then got an error dialog saying:
Error: Couldn't recognize image data
When I expanded the Details, I got this:
couldn't recognize image data
couldn't recognize image data
while executing
"image create photo tempPieces$font$size -data
$::pieceImageData($font,$size)"
(procedure "setPieceData" line 3)
invoked from within
"setPieceData $font $size"
(procedure "setPieceFont" line 4)
invoked from within
"setPieceFont USCF"
invoked from within
".#menu.#menu#options.#menu#options#board.#menu#options#board#pieces invoke
active"
("uplevel" body line 1)
invoked from within
"uplevel #0 [list $w invoke active]"
(procedure "tk::MenuInvoke" line 50)
invoked from within
"tk::MenuInvoke
.#menu.#menu#options.#menu#options#board.#menu#options#board#pieces 1"
(command bound to event)
I then exited the app, tried to restart and got the same error that I wrote
to the list about.
Thanks for the help,
Dave.
