Coloring Buttons¶

Coloring buttons let you add colored arrows and squares to illustrate an idea you have in a position. The drawings get saved to the position as special annotations in a format compatible with ChessBase. Therefore, you need to save the game if you want to keep the colored arrows and squares.

To draw a colored arrow:

Select a color by tapping once on a coloring button.
Drag from the start square to the end square to draw an arrow with the selected color.
Deselect the color by tapping again on the same coloring button.

To delete a colored arrow, draw the same arrow over the existing one:

Select the color of the arrow.
Drag from the start of the arrow to the end.

To color a square:

Select a color by tapping once on a coloring button.
Tap each square you want to color.
Deselect the color by tapping again on the same coloring button.

To remove the color of a square, draw the same color on the square:

Select the same color.
Tap the colored square.

To remove all the colored arrows and squares of the currently selected color:

Tap the X (which should display the same color you want to remove).
