Thanks to all again.
I click on start/trial mode (the hammer button or edit→try variation) then
I click add variation (the +V button on the main menu) but then? I can't
move a single piece on the main board by clicking on them! At this point I
would like to try the moves proposed by the engine.
I think there is something crucial I'm missing, trial mode would very
useful but I can't manage to make it work.
If instead I try to use the show analysis windows on the analysis window I
only get a board with the current position, I can't see any variation on
it. If I click with the right button on the analysis window, it gets blank
and says "Click here to see moves", if I keep on right-click clicking on it
I see (I guess) the end positions of the variations but the analysis window
stays blank!
