Anyone else think this is a good idea and be willing to chip in?

P.S. I like the default stones very much; I simply like some more options.

It looks like people have already contributed different styles: https://github.com/yishn/Sabaki/wiki/Userstyles but it will require you to do a little legwork to get them into the program contents.

See the instructions here: https://github.com/yishn/Sabaki/wiki/Userstyle-Tutorial

I'm a designer/front-end developer myself and would be happy to take a swing at making a new skin, but no money necessary. I've been using Sabaki as my SGF viewer since I started learning Go a few weeks ago. I thought it was the most elegant of the offerings out there!

Thank you very much for the pointers and links!

Is there anything that can be done to improve the load time for the application? For example, opening a new window with a blank board seems to take time compared to other SGF editors.

Maybe it's just my perception...?

pay me, i can do it with one hand behind my back, by copying and pasting from cgoban. then i can spend the money to hire someone to turn Sabaki into icGo for me.

Have you tried Sabaki since the new v0.30.1 release? That was a big performance-related change since it switched to Preact.

Thanks for mentioning this. I made a funny mistake. From when I installed v0.20.<something>, Sabaki was installed under Windows in my "Program Files (x86)" folder - maybe I installed the ia32 version by mistake. When I downloaded the update, it installed to "Program Files". So even though, I had a new version installed, the shortcut I had been using pointed to the old version.

Now that I'm using the latest version, I'd say that it's not terrible. Still a bit more lag than I'd like - maybe about 1.5 seconds to load a new window on my laptop.

Not a huge deal, I suppose... I can live with this if it means I get to have all of the nice features Sabaki supports

There's sabaki editor for android in play store is it yours or some knock off

I'm hearing of this the first time, I suspect it's a thin wrapper around the web version of Sabaki. Which, BTW, is not optimized for touch devices at all.

Just as I thought. It's bad.
Are you thinking of doing sabaki for android? I am looking for some app with the moves tree and so on. I record my tournament games on my phone and If possible review them right after and the tree would help a lot. and I freaking love how sabaki looks.

I noticed something odd about how Sabaki handles file names. If I open an sgf file, it gives the file name in the upper left. However, if I then save the file under a new name (save as), the new file name does not replace the old one in the upper left. It looks like the programs does follow the convention that "save" automatically saves to the last used file name. So, if I save file1 as file2, Sabaki will save to the name file2 when I hit "save". It looks like the screen is just not updated when the file name changes.

I can't seem to reproduce the behavior you're describing. If I open a file, say `file.sgf`, and save as `new.sgf`, then the title of the window will change to `new.sgf` as expected.

Interesting. I can reproduce it on my installation. What can I share with you to help you figure out what is going on? I could e-mail you a video of the sequence if that would be helpful. But I'd rather not post that on a public forum.

Sure, a video could be useful. You can contact me at shen.yichuan[at]gmail.com. Can you tell me what OS you're using? Also, you can try to reinstall Sabaki.

I've received your video, but I still can't reproduce this behaviour on the latest version of Sabaki. I suspect you have an outdated version. I can vaguely remember that this was an issue some versions ago...

Sorry for the delayed reply on this. It slipped my mind. I'm running V0.31.2. That is the most recent one, no?

Yes, it is... Hmm, I'm running out of ideas now. Have you already tried downloading a fresh version? Other things you could do is to remove the config folder located at `%APPDATA%\Sabaki`.
