Not sure I understand -- using the menu to reset the game or switch game works fine at home, but the uploaded scenario seems to want to 'stop' when these are used in 'Greenfoot'.

On the menu, if you click 'show board notation' more than once, rather than toggling it on and off, it keeps applying it. Other than that, very nice :) Reminds me that I need to fix my draughts game (which looks quite similar) because I got the rules of draughts wrong when I made it (having not played the game in ages)

You are right, it would be a simple matter of changing the paint order, so the menu object is under to notations object. But you really do not want to be able to call the menu at all when the notations object is up. Therefore, I probably should have used 'rightClick' to initiate the menu object (that would avoid the calling of the menu object when the notations object is up). Unfortunately, the laptop I created it on crashed, and I do not have the files to correct anything. There are a few other gliches that I have come across, also.

if you want the source back just decompile this www.greenfoot.org/applet_attachments/0000/9544/greenfoot1822994819051924242.jar

How can I use 'greenfoot1822994819051924242.jar' to "decompile" something that's on my computer? Another question is how can I use it to "decompile" a sceneario as JetLennit suggested? He suggested to danpost to use it to get his source back from a scenario that only exists on the website, so how can it be used to decompile an uploaded scenario.
