Click and hold, why's that?

Hi Chess Staff! :) 

Until today, I could click on a square with a piece, then click on another square to move that piece to this location. Now, for some reason, this doesn't work anynow. Now I have to click on a piece and hold the mouse button down while moving the piece to its new location. This is not nearly as good, since I now and then "drop" then piece on the wrong square, something that never happened before - with the "click-click method". Why is that?

we didn't change anything on our end. which feature are you referring to? which browser do you use?

Avatar of cigoL

I'm using Chrome, as I've done all along. In the Game Explorer I can still "click-click" without having to "hold'n'drop". Hm... I did change one thing, the size of the boards, and the color scheme. Could that have anything to do with it?

shouldn't. i'm also on chrome and am having no problems. 

try a complete browser cache clear?

Cleared the cache. Didn't help.

Hi Erik, I found the problem. For some strange reason it was to do with the highlight last move setting. When that little box is unchecked, then "click-and-hold" becomes necessary. Any chance your could change that, so the normal (good), "click-click" will still work, even with the highlight last move feature turned off? Thanks!
