Cute Chess 1.4.0 GUI problem

Post by Jouni »

I tried to update from 1.2.0. New look was ugly looking for me. But serious thing: I can't change win/draw adjucation! Why? Windows 11. I removed old from Windows remove installed programs.

I didn't know that version existed. I'm running 1.3.1

I'll download 1.4.0 and try it.

Oh, that is completely unusable for me at first try. Serious issues with the drop-down lists such as draw adjudication, as you describe. You can set them manually in the cutechess.ini file, however they still don't show in the dropdowns and I don't know if it takes effect. This version seems best avoided.

I've been using 1.3.1 and I think 1.20 prior to that with no issues for a very long time.

Just remove the new style (styles folder).
