Hmm. Upon upgrading my system to Ubuntu 23.04, this problem appears to have
solved itself. Maybe they fixed GNOME. Or did a new version of SCID get
installed with the upgrade that fixed this issue?

I added a game (actually it was Carlsen-Nepo Game 6) to my database, and
somehow it got corrupted. (What can cause this? I think it might have
something to do with two instances of SCID open on the same database -
which perhaps ought not to be allowed?)
I kept getting these warnings about the
Never mind, doing a search with nothing in the search field restored the
whole list. Weird. Maybe someone can explain what happened.

I just did something that possibly trashed my database and I don't know how
or even if it's possible to fix it.
I found it annoying that SCID insisted on showing me ratings (in
parentheses) from other games with the same players when I did not enter
ratings in that game's data. I was looking for
A minor point but one that causes me annoyance and might be easy to fix. I
run SCID on a two-monitor setup, with the "main" monitor (as configured on
my Ubuntu system) being the "second" monitor, not my laptop monitor. When
SCID is started it "remembers" where it was last displayed and displays

That's pretty much a good solution except it's a little weird to have the
same move as the main line and a variation. But much better than anything
else I've tried.

Or maybe this is a howto.
I use SCID to track games I play via email with a friend. I like to save
the analysis I've done as I'm playing. When I enter the result, it always
puts at the end of the analysis, not at the point where resignation
occurred. I've been trying to copy the post-resign
When opening a database, default to opening the last game opened in the
database.
When opening a game, bring up the last position viewed in that game (rather
than the beginning of the game).
Both of the above optional of course.

Alternatively, I suppose, equally good would be an option to show the end
status at the real last move rather than at the end of the notation.

Sometimes I'm analyzing a game then it ends. The result is saved at the
end of the notation and not at the point of the last move. I'd like to be
able to copy all the further analysis as text and paste it in as a comment
after the real last move. Unfortunately, the comment editor performs a
Ok, thanks. I am at home in the terminal, which I used to prove that
pgnscid no longer existed. :-). However, I think the GUI methods for
importing pgn are more than adequate for my current needs.

Sometimes, when I try to use the comment editor, I can't get focus in
the comment entry area. I am then forced to try a bunch of random
clicks and button pushes until the problem goes away, which it always
does, eventually, though I never know what the secret technique is.

I run Scid 4.7.0 on OpenBSD and on Windows 10 to try to satisfy myself
of any anomalies between the two operating systems. If I can be of any
further help please let me know. I'll do my best to respond within a
day or two.
