4.4.1 Position Evaluation
You have three different formats to enter a position evaluation: � N: Normal notation for position evaluation. � C: Computer Evaluation. You can enter any decimal number. Usually used for min-max-calculation. � P: Personal Evaluation. Same as Computer Evaluation, but exclusively used by yourself.
4.4.2 Mark Positions with Labels
You can add a label to a position which will help you to navigate through your opening. Some labels are automatically set by the program like the“ Move missed” which is actually used while running some games against your openings( s. Run Against Games p. 61).
The label“ Training” will be used when you mark a position during your training session. Others can freely used by you. Especially the“ not complete” label is useful when you enter new variations for your opening, but can’ t complete them for the moment.
The position labels would be not half as useful if you could not use them for navigating through your opening. You can easily move forward or backward to the next position with a selected label in the navigation group( e. g. you can easily check the next position which was marked as“ not complete” to continue your work). Please check for this the section Navigation( p. 42).
4.4.3 Copy Position
You can copy the current position to the clipboard if you click on the corresponding symbol. This allows you to quickly analyze a position with another program, if you paste the position into it.
4.4.4 Min-Max-Calculation
The min-max calculation is a powerful function to find forcing winning variations for an opening. The premises are evaluated leaf nodes( end position) for all variations.
