Version 0.6 adds no major new features, but adds a number of smaller fixes
and refinements:
* Better support for various character sets
* Better support for various broken SGF files that occur in the wild
* An "auto-collapse" mode for the game tree, which shows only the
current variation and the ones following it and collapses everything
else
* A tooltip preview for the game tree
* A file open dialog with an SGF preview
* An improved version of the batch analysis dialog, with a list view
for finished jobs and an engine selector
* Better stone sounds
* An "automatic diagrams" dialog which can create figures and diagrams
for an entire file
* Image export functionality for the evaluation graph
* Better game tree headers on Windows, working around a Qt problem
* An updated Chinese translation
These are major user-visible changes in 0.7:
* Old SGFs and a few new ones use a move at 20:20 to signal pass which
caused problems when loading such SGFs.
* q5go can now read kombilo databases. There is a new file open dialog
to select a game from the database; it has preview functionality to
display game information and allow browsing through the game moves.
* Visibility of menu, status bar, side bar and slider in the board
window are now saved as part of the layout. Whatever preferences
option there were have been removed, except for the one to choose
whether to place the side bar to the left or the right.
