Mind the wording. 'Expected' and 'Wrong'. Pascal, imho, the order you suggest below is only 'Correct' because it happens to work. There are so many things that are simply different with scid, one needs to get used to it; and to me it feels even close to impossible to document it. It is not bad (no, it is not!) but it is certainly not expected either. Another example (no need to respond to this one, though it is related): Start scid, open some base as tree (only), and enter a few moves from the tree on the board (in the clipbase). Now open the base that you already have in the tree, and notice that the current game on the board changes to the very first game in the base that matches the clip base board position. Could be a nice feature, but hard to understand it is and to me it always comes as a surprise; and - indeed, Natalia - I too call this a side effect.
