New features:

  • Ownership visualization was improved, thanks to the incredible work of @jacobm-tech
    • The default style is now blended, but you can theme it to use marks, blocks, or blended style, and choose when to mark stones
    • See themes for all the options
    • Old themes have been updated to stay close to their former style
    • Design improvement suggestions or bug reports can be added to this issue
    • The default may change, particularly between 'all' or 'weak' stones marked, here is a quick poll to inform this decision
  • Deeper analysis can now be applied only to a specific move range
    *Continuous analysis and other extra analysis modes are now less aggressive in turning 'top move' hints on.
    • Using shift+spacebar instead of spacebar avoids turning them on in the remaining of starting continuous analysis.

Bug fixes and minor changes:

  • Python 3.10 is supported again
  • Wide root noise works correctly when set to 0.0 in config, this previously reverted to the default.
  • Board rotation was fixed
    • +Fix region of interest when board is rotated
    • +No longer dependent on numpy, reducing binary size and improving startup time
  • An improvement in the display for high resolution displays on windows
  • When certain hints are turned off, as in the lizzie theme, hovering over them is now disabled as well
  • Windows executables should now include version information, thanks to @ulty4life

Installation

  • Windows users can simply download and run the KaTrain.exe file attached, or download the KaTrain.zip file and run the .exe in that (which is slightly faster to start up)
  • macOS users can use the attached KaTrainOSX.dmg (open, drag .app to applications). The first time you start the app, you will need to control-click the app in finder to allow installation. Note that on the newer Macs with M1 architecture, you still need to brew install katago, or compile katago yourself.
  • Linux and macOS users can install using pip3 install -U katrain

After installing the program for the first time, it is recommended to check general settings (F8) and download the latest katago models.
