ecause a good number of people have asked, to access all the features in PocketChess, tap on the menu button found at the lower left of the Pilot screen, just left of the graffiti area. That'll pull down the PocketChess menu, giving you access to all the PocketChess commands. Or if you wish, use the menu shortcut by writing the letter of the shortcut directly in the graffiti area (not shortcut stroke required!)
