If you missed a move or wondered whether not a different candidate move would be better you can easily mark the position without having to interrupt your training session. The Show Move command shows the correct move for the current position. Please be aware that the position will be automatically considered as not known if you use the tip function. 5.4.1 Line Complexity The Line Complexity group let you control how deeply you want to train your openings. In the beginning you might want to focus on the main lines or the first moves to evenly learn all openings instead of one till move 30th and others not at all. These options give you the chance to control exactly this. Max Length of Line determines what the maximum length of any line should be. You can decide to learn just the first 15 moves and then stop there. For some openings you will already cover all important positions with these settings while others like the Dragon have theory for up to 30 moves or even more. The Max Depth of Sidelines is another way to limit the training for an opening. If you enter 1 you are only going to train the main line (top ranked candidate move of the opposite color). You can also consider all sidelines for the first X moves and only then focus on the main lines. The option Ingore Sidelines after X Moves let you achieve exactly this in conjunction with the Max Dept of Sidelines option. 5.4.2 Correct Move The standard setting requests from you to always play the top ranked candidate move for your side. Usually you don’t maintain more than one candidate move for your side anyway. However, sometimes you want to be more flexible and at certain key position you want to prepare an alternative to your main move. In this case you have to add more than one candidate move for those position and then select for training either “All Best Moves” or “All Non-Negative Moves”. In this case the program will accept not just the “Top Ranked Move” as correct reply. 5.4.3 Complete Line If you have chosen the Complete Line Mode (p.69) mode additional options are available.
