Chess Diagram Editor Description

Chess Diagram Editor is a lightweight Windows application developed specifically for helping you create chess diagrams. This is a portable program, so it is important to mention that it doesn’t leave any traces in the Windows Registry. You can copy it on any USB flash drive or other devices, and take it with you whenever you need to generate chess diagrams on the breeze, without having to go through installation steps. Since this is a Java-based utility, you should make sure you have previously installed the working environment on the computer, otherwise you cannot run the tool.Straightforward interfaceYou are welcomed by a panel which is divided into multiple working areas. The tool offers quick access to the Piece Palette section from where you can tweak the color of the pieces and insert symbols. Plus, you can use the built-on editor for planning your chess movements, check the list with problems, and create various projects. Rich-featured configuration settings Chess Diagram Editor gives you the possibility to insert arrows and symbols for tracing your piece movements on the chess table, move the pieces (pawn, rock, knight, bishop, king, queen) to the desired square, and change the color of the field, pieces, arrows, and symbols. The utility is also able to list the possible problems detected in the current chess game and provide solutions. Last but not least, you are allowed to save the current chess diagram to JPG, GIF, or PNG file format, insert borders, customize the layout of the squares by choosing between different styles, as well as switch between different board types. An overall efficient chess diagram editorAll things considered, Chess Diagram Editor offers a handy set of parameters for helping you generate chess diagrams but it still needs some improvements in the GUI area to make the editing process more intuitive.
