Hello everyone,
I've probably missed something, not for the first time, but what is it that makes available the user selection Enlarge Board when playing a game?
Where is this explained in the Zillions files?
Thanks to anyone who replies,

There is no special command or option for this. Zillions uses an internal algorithm to decide if there is enough screen real estate to display an enlarged version of your board. If not, the option is disabled. I suppose this goes along with the Zillions philosophy of keeping things simple by doing as much work for you as possible.
I don't know what the algorithm is, you'll just have to experiment with different sized boards. If you want the option enabled, reduce the size of your board until it is enabled. If you want the option disabled, to the converse of that.

Thanks Greg,
I thought that is what happens. I'd still like to know where it is explained in the Zillions files. There might be something else there which I would be interested in. Does anyone know where those files are?

Ronald,
I should have mentioned that what I wrote is not explained anywhere within the Zillions help file. Like several other aspects of Zillions, it was deduced via experimentation.
I'm glad to see that Zillions continues to interest new developers. Good luck with your game!
