Problem with starting comments

Post by Eric Wainwright »

Hi Mark and crew,

I've run into a bad bug in HCE 1.6 with starting comments disappearing. When you save a database (e.g. cmd-S), all of the starting comments for the games in the database will be stripped. (Just save any database containing starting comments, restart HCE, reopen the database and you'll notice the starting comments are gone.)

I've also noticed that the "Add start comment…" command is inserting the comment immediately before the current move and not at the start of the game. (The manual says this command inserts comments before the start of the game.)

I'm running HCE 1.6 on OS X 10.8.4

Regards,
Eric W.

This has been reported already and will be fixed in the next update.

Best Wishes,

Dammit, I fell foul of this after adding start comments to a few games last night and found them to be missing this morning - New Years resolution - I must read the forum more carefully :-)
