New training mode: photo reading
Learn your repertoire in a complete new way: unconsciously! The program will show you randomly positions of your opening for a short moment before it shows the correct candidate move and then jumps to another position. There is absolutely no interactivity from your side. The idea behind this is to learn the positions unconsciously and is derived from photo reading.
New statistic module
The new statistic module offers several useful charts about your repertoire complexity and how well you know already your openings. The scheduler shows you when you have to recall already trained positions in order to not forget them.
There are many other new features which have been added and you can find out more about in this manual or just check the tooltips for a command by hovering with your mouse over a command for example in the ribbon.
