Chess Graphical User Interface: Banksia 0.42 (Windows, Mac and Linux)


BanksiaGUI is a freeware chess Graphical User Interface.

Changes v 0.42:
Fixed bugs:
Elo offset for databases: cannot anchor to a player
Cannot directly edit names, paths… of engines by double click in Settings
Crash when clear board on editing
Some small improvements/adjustments such as upgraded metallic theme
New features:
Right-click to highlight squares, right-click and drag to draw arrows. Press Shift, Ctrl, Alt buttons to change colors. Do the same squares to remove an individual highlight, arrow. Any left-click on the board will erase all those highlights and arrows. Colors can be modified via Settings
Show threatened pieces – the pieces are attacked without any protection or are attacked by smaller value pieces (say, a Queen is being attacked by a Bishop regardless it’s protected or not). This function may be very useful for beginners to reduce nonsense losing pieces
Edit tournament: users can easily and quickly change players, remove, reset games, merge two tournaments… without working directly with JSON files. It’s useful if you want to change/upgrade engines
