Why are annotation symbols converted to question marks

When I add an annotation symbol (eg. ∞ unclear) in the chess diagram editor, after I click Post, the annotation symbol appears as a question mark.

For example, here I tried to add an unclear mark, but this is what comes up.

That's just the mistake annotation.

Edit: Nevermind.

Yeah, the mistake annotation shouldn't come up when you add other annotation symbols.

Wait, I didn't read #2.

Let me test:

I think the only thing broken isn't annotation symbols...

The FEN says: "false".

And the board won't show up.

I believe if you don't want the glyph to show you have to add them as comments instead.

I inserted the unclear symbol as a comment, but that gets converted to a question mark as well.

Actually, it will depend on the board settings. Change Move Classification Style to Standard under the Analysis board settings.

Oh, I see what you're meaning.

This is just exactly how game review annotates my game. 😀

I don't have "Move Classification Style" listed on the "Board & Pieces" page of my settings. Is this a Beta Feature?

I am talking about the chess diagram editor used in vote chess games and the forums (not Analysis or Game Review).

Avatar of wayne_thomas

Oh I see. Under Learn -> Analysis, call up a board click on the cogwheel icon, and then there is a drop down menu for Move Classification Style with a choice between Traditional and Default.

I don't see any cogwheel in the Vote chess/forum chess diagram editor.

It turned the unclear annotation into the mistake mark on certain moves, and then on others it shows up as the unclear annotation. I dunno, maybe a bug?
