Re: [Scid-users] Questions

Hi Steve, Maurice answered already so I just try to append to his information. 1. I'm using scid on Ubuntu Linux 19.04. The web site used to have a document for installing the latest there? I no longer see this. Don't remember how I previously installed it. You can either download from

Re: [Scid-users] Creating a database

Hello Hugh, I have just downloaded Scid and I am navigating my way around it.  I would like to load my own games in a separate database, but I cannot see how to add another database in addition to the Example 1 and Example 2 databases. Create a new database: "File" --> "New" --> [write]

Re: [Scid-users] A new version of Scid is available

Thank you Fulvio. The new version works great on my Slackware 14 machine. It seems to react faster. During the installation process I noticed, that the configure file in the zip package is not executable (After chmod a+x I could easily ./configure, make and make install). All the best Werner

Re: [Scid-users] Looking for Trial mode on Scid 4.6 toolbar

Hello Fulvio, I believe also that the pgnscid script was not particularly useful and a little dangerous: it's possible to import multiple png directly from the GUI and usually you really want a user to supervise such a process in case of errors. If I remember correctly I once had problems

Re: [Scid-users] New Scid 4.6.1 version

Thanks, Fulvio, for the great version! I noticed some minor problems on my machine (Windows XP): When I play a tactical game (Play - Tactical Game) and I have to leave the game running, the clock is counting. When the clock reaches 59:59 it adds the hour count but the minute count becomes a

[Scid-users] Differences between Windows and Linux version?

Hello Fulvio, also a thank you from me for this new Windows version. I'm using Windows XP and it seems to me, that there are differences between the Windows and the Linux version: I can't use the feature Play - Tactical game. I only get the error Phalanx or Toga not found. It seems this two

Re: [Scid-users] Photos of players? - Now it works!

Hello Benoit, Here's a wiki entry for How to Show the Players' Photos: https://sourceforge.net/p/scid/wiki/HowToShowPlayersPhotos/ Tell me if that works for you. This entry looks generally fine to me. I'm not sure if it would be more convenient for a user to name the zip-files

Re: [Scid-users] Photos of players? - Now it works!

Hello Okey, Thanks for this tip - now it works :-)! One more place to check is to set the Spellcheck file. It seems that Scid 4.6 beta does not automatically include either spelling.ssp or ratings.ssp (the spellcheck files) in the package, so you have to download one. The spf/spi files

Re: [Scid-users] Photos of players? (Werner Haas)

Hello Okey Iwu, Did you check the setting of the menu item: Options Game Information Show Photos ? If that is set, the next place to look is: Options Windows Show Game Info. Thanks for telling me that those two settings have to be active. I can see now the game information underneath
