Its also possible to insert annotation moves symbols and annotation position symbols, these can be selected from their respective menus.

The analyzing Chess Brain

When you walk through a game, as discussed above, you have the possibility to let the computer analyze the moves. By setting the Analyzing brain option from the Chess Engine tab in the options dialog a move is calculated for the current position. The results of the analyses can be reviewed in the statistics Window. The extend of the analyses is unlimited, meaning that by allowing more time to analyze the better the calculated result will be. When a different move is selected, the analysis starts again for that specific position.
