This looks very nice already! :) Just some immediate
observations.
- Move comment:
Probably it would be better to have it in a tooltip for
the color marker as it gets lost a bit at the end fo the
line. Maybe even a tooltip is not the correct thing but a
small part of the window that gets set aside. The comment
could e.g. show up if the mouse hovers over the line.
Also it is well possible that one wants to add a bit
more prosa there, so considering multiple lines would be
nice. Think of a short discussion of the main features of
the resulting game. Surely e.g. a French Winawer has a
very different layout than the Classical and you'd want to
drop a note about Bb4 here.
- Move Nags:
I miss a flag that says: "do not play". This is differen
from "??" as it could even be a strong line, but one that
leads to positions one does not like, ie. lines one wants
to exclude from ones own repertoir but that are not weak.
In the above example someone who plays the Winawer only
would surely want to exclude the Classical. Ok, marking
Bb4 with !! sounds a bit strange, but Nf6 with ??, well I
don't know ;)
- Colour codes
One might want to allow userdefinde labels, but I guess
this is already in your set of ideas.
- Comment position
I'm a bit confused by this menue popping up in the context
menue of the move line. Actually one is commenting the
position _before_ this move is entered, so it should more
likely be in the Mask menue, or just an MLE where the
current comment shows up that can be edited. Here also it
might very well be that one would want to add some sort of
discussion concerning the position at hand, I think a
oneliner is probably a bit short. Think of a short
discussion of the position at hand, say general strategy,
weak points, strong points and so on.
- stm-Files
Though it is clearly not the intention, do you see a
possibility to have an easier text format for the
stm-files? (BTW: my mime-base tells me .stm to be some
audio file.) The current one is surely very nice for tcl
to read in, but I admit that I sometimes like to set up
such stuff by hand, especially if I want to do this
outside of scid, e.g. if I've already some data at hand or
if I just want to correct a typo that appears throughout
the file.
