- What are the limitations of PGNReader?
PGNReader does not support entering
moves on the board and saving them to a file.
PGNReader can read PGN files
with annotations, but for best performance it is recommended to use unannotated PGN files. Annotations are not displayed on
screen.
Due to midlet restrictions, the 'Copy' feature cannot actually
copy to the mobile's clipboard. It will only load the game/position in a standard text field, from where the user is expected
to use your mobile's select and copy feature to manually copy the text. Note that the select/copy option may not be present
on all phones.
- What
are the tips and tricks I can use?
Use an
unannotated pgn database for best application performance. This will make searching and other operations faster. You can use
software like Chessbase to 'unannotate' your pgn database. Make sure to make a backup copy! [Quick Filter] Use combination of Quick Filters to search for interesting games. Choose a combination
of 'My Repertoire' and 'Player > 2700' to find games of Super GMs that match your repertoire! [Quick Filter] You can use Quick Filters on the search results of the Advanced Search. Say you
have searched for all games of Anand (ignore colors) using Advanced search. Once the games are loaded, you can use any
of the Quick Filters from the menu to filter down the games. [Quick Filter] To clear all active Quick Filters, use the <Delete> or equivalent <C> key. [Games List] The application marks the recently viewed games in plain font making it easier to
keep a visual track of the last few games that you would have seen. Note that only the last 20 games per database are marked. [Advanced Search] Press and hold the <Delete> or equivalent <C> key to clear all
the fields on the Advanced Search screen. [Advanced Search] In the 'Result' field of Advanced Search screen, simply
enter 0 to search for Black wins instead of 0-1. Similarly enter 1 to search for games with White wins or draw instead of
typing 1-0 or 1/2-1/2.
