Suggestion - follow full lines in analysis

It would be great if we could click on lines in the analysis and follow them through, rather than having to click on the best next moves repeatedly.

Do you have a screenshot of that please? That would be helpful in understanding your suggestion. Thank you

So where it says e4 at the top it would be nice to click on the line and be able to just press forward through the moves.

I see the point. However, I see that you can do the same just with the arrows on your keyword (left and right). Would that be enough?

That doesn't seem to work for moves that weren't actually played. For instance, if I want to follow through a recommended line (better than what I played) I have to click through the individual moves. If we could just click on the line and then use the keyboard arrows that would be great.

Ah, I see it now. I think that is actually an awesome suggestion. Will ticket, thanks

Great, thanks!

I too love that suggestion.

I had the same problem. 

The solution is to click on the LAST move of a line to display that line on the main board as a variation line. Then your arrow keys will move you forward and back through the line.

If you click on the LAST move of another line WITHIN the analysis of the current best line you are playing through, it will be added as a 2nd variation.

Yeah I found this workaround as well

Just noticed the little magnifying glass next to the lines today. Thanks for implementing this!
