So you need a "dumb" board which allows you to move as written in a book or (chess) magazine?

Get involved by creating feature requests or adding features to the wish list! This is a good starting point:

There is no way to go back to earlier moves in the game, the minimum one would need to be able to use this thing for any normal chess activities including looking at moves that have been played.

The main goal of Miniature at the moment is to make online games against foreign players possible. Most of these games are rated so it's unusual to take back a move so this is not implemented yet.

The first question for example is: How to implement the forward/backward move function? I could imagine a swipe gesture for this... but as written a good place to deiscuss this more concrete would be a filled bug report/enhancement request in the Bug tracker

Ciao jukey
