Input Game Position

Select menu item "Game -> Input Position ->Begin Input". The "Position Game" dialog box appears. The dialog box is the same as "New Game". Click OK, you will see the piece bar at the right side of the board.

You can now begin input game position by drag and drop pieces. You can:
1. drag the pieces on the board out of board which deletes the piece;
2. drag the pieces on the board to another square on the board;
3. drag the pieces on the right bar into the board.

You can also delete all pieces on the board except kings by selecting menu item "Game -> Input Position ->Clear Board". Or you choose the position of new game by selecting menu item "Game -> Input Position ->Initial Board".

After you drag all the pieces into correct positions, you nearly finish inputing game position. Now you can choose red moves first (this is default) or black moves first.

Now select menu item "Game -> Input Position ->Done Input", if the position is valid, the game begins. If the position is invalid, such as the number of rooks exceed 2, the king is not in the f1-d3 square, no king or the black king is in check(when red moves first, vice versa). The invalid piece is highlighted. Please correct the error, then select the menu again.

The following is a correct game position:
