When I open an analysis board and load a game from my archive or from a PGN, it works as expected.
However, when I paste the FEN below (or any FEN) and then click "Add Game", no moves are shown (it loads a new game in the starting position), and clicking on the arrow button to show the next move has no effect.
rnbqkbnr/pppppppp/8/8/8/8/PPPPPPPP/RNBQKBNR w KQkq - 0 1
Am I missing something obvious?
That FEN string is the starting position FEN.
Ahhhh! This makes total sense now. I didn't understand that the FEN was a reference to a static position. Thank you!
Why does this FEN give me an error message (Invalid FEN)?
5Q2/1K6/BRp2NN1/p1P2p2/3kbb1R/2q5/5P2/B7 w - -
I was able to setup this FEN position with the analysis board.
[FEN "5Q2/1K6/BRp2NN1/p1P2p2/3kbb1R/2q5/5P2/B7 w - - 0 1"]
