Thanks Jerome, Yeah .. I think it is a nice power feature to show the arrows on the main board, but it is seems to me Arena is kindof impossibly complicated to use and unintuitive, though of course it doesnt stop lots of people using it :)
The way our feature is now is quite clear... You want to add a line ? - It is obvious (from the arrow) which line you are adding when you press + or +V.. We already have clickable arrows on the main board showing mainlines/variations. (Should we have an arrow for "next" move??) For the time being at least i might leave it as-is and i have made a svn commit. I think i have fixed the bugs, the line colour is now selectable (Options->Colours->EngineArrows), and (for the time being at least) xboard engines don't/can't show the arrow.
