Alternative piece designs

Contents
Contents

In addition to the standard set of pieces, the program offers some alternative ways of displaying the pieces on the board.

Example

The simplest way to change them is by Right click -- Board Design from the board.

The Board design dialog contains the entry "Pieces".

Pieces

This allows you to select the set of pieces you wish; it will then be used to display the pieces on the board.
