3.2 Using the pull-down menus

The use of the 9 pull-down menus and the 2 name pull-down menus is Windows-like.

There are two ways to operate them: clicking without holding the mouse, and clicking when holding the mouse.

• If you click the mouse on one of the menus, the functions in the particular menu will appear on your screen. Make your choice by clicking on one of the functions inside the menu.
• If you click on a menu by holding the mouse you can drag the mouse to the desired function in the menu. If you release the mouse, the function will be executed immediately. In this case, the scroll bar will follow the mouse movements.
• Keyboard users can access the pull-down menus with the F1 to F9 buttons. To enter the name menus use ALT+W (for white player) en ALT+Z (for black player). The cursor keys will move the scroll bar to the desired function.
• Some functions in the pull-down menus have sub-menus, displayed as >> or <<. They will appear automatically when the scroll bar lights such an option. Keyboard users can use the cursor keys.
• You can also choose an option with the mouse, keep the mouse button pressed and drag it to the question mark: you then will be in this manual.
