      I can´t replicate the problem in my pc, it works (and when 9.07 I could replicate).
      If you use the update system, one alternative is to install it again.

      There is a file = bug.log, perhaps it has the error line code (to lukasmonk at gmail). Although I believe that this problem can be fixed with a new installation, you can test it downloading the portable version in any folder, installing and excuting lucas.exe.

    I cannot use the program using my Windows XP 32 bits. Please check. Every time that I open the program, no program is running. The program cannot open. Anyway, there's no cautions or prompting message. Please, fix. Thank you!

      Hi Ban, you could test the portable version and from a cmd window. I don´t know which is the problem, the program is generated from a virtual XP.

      They should be able to calculate more than 4 positions each time. If you are running an instance of any of them, then write uci and Intro, the MultiPV option should appear.

    Hi I like lucas chess a lot, one question, why kibitzer mode is not multithreaded? (I am using stockfish 7). It is supposed to be multithreaded because it is engine dependant, and stockfish 7 is multithreaded engine. In settings for stockfish I set number of cores to 7, but task manager shows only one core is working...

      This is something managed by engine itself. LC only send to engine setoption name Threads value 7. You know that 7 threads are used because %CPU to stockfish is more than 87.5%. (if you PC has 8 cores).

Future version 10 step 05: Scanner of positions

Some days ago Juan Carlos Antón, head of UNED chess school , does give me permission to include tactical positions from the PDFs on the downloads of UNED web, which I consider very educational. The problem is there is no possibility of obtaining  original fens. The solution to ease my work, has been to create something like an OCR of image positions, which at this specific case is working very well. Only three concepts are handled : mark, deduce, and learn. First, mark the board, the next step is to deduce, if there are errors the user corrects them manually and asked the program to learn from them. At the beginning there are quite a few errors, but less and less. To mark the Board a transparent window is launched that occupies the desk and lets see the PDF and select a position. It is selected with the mouse by dragging a corner to the other, and it is fitted with the arrow keys. At the end the Enter key is pressed to accept the selected and continue in the program wi...
