Is it possible to display a "Caption Area" under the Floating Board display option? Game comments might do well there. #77

Greetings yo35,

The Floating board option ... is there a way to add a caption under that board? I'm thinking that it would be much easier if comments could appear in that caption area at the time of the last move. If there are not comments at that part of a game, that would be blank. I.e. only the current caption for a move would be displayed there. If a user goes wild (which I do not, my comments are always short, but some users want volumes as a note), the the caption section could have a scroll bar past a set threshold size.

My problem is that I get carried away in playing advancing through a game, i do not read the comments. I have to go back and forth. If comments were to timely fill a board caption area, it would be much easier to notice that there is a comment to read at this point in the game play.

Hopefully this may be simple to code and not have technical issues that will make it difficult.

I look forward to your thoughts, response to this request.

Thanks,

Richard

Hi Richard,
This feature has already been proposed by another user here: #61. This is clearly a relevant feature, that should be implemented at some point (most probably together with a kind of game database browser, to let readers of the website switch among a list of games).
Unfortunately, the implementation of new features in the plugin goes slowly as it is done on my spare time. Therefore I don't know when this feature will be available.
