Thanks Joshua Pettus!
Actually I am lucky to catch you here so I can "blame" you a bit
For your question first, I have not seen any things (changed icon colours, dots...) you mentioned. I have played a short match and attach the image bellow. You can see that White is computing but XBoard icon is still in black.
Now, few small bug reports:
- When opening a pgn file with multi games, if I select a game has a comment in the end, the board and all pieces may be disappeared (I have reported this problem long time ago)
- I cannot quickly select a variant (not Western chess) engine from bottom of menu Engine. When I click on the line “farymax” the XBoard works OK but not with the line haqkid - a box is popped out with message: “No engine haqkid is installed”
- My computer has been installed some languages, English and Vietnamese. But English is still set Primary. System and all other apps show English everywhere but XBoard - it is using Vietnamese. Not sure if it is your purpose
I am eager for your Xiangqi version. I guess that more people will get benefit from that than default one.
Tech details if you need: I am using XBoard 4.9.1 for Mac. My computer is Macbook pro mid 2015, MacOS is Sierra 10.12.1
