Move Highlight options?

Hi.

 

Is there a way to change the way the board highlights moves?

 

At the moment it just highlights the whole square, which has a tendency to make dark squares look like the light squares when highlighted, which visually breaks up the flow of the squares and messes with my anal neatness obsession.   Smile

 

Would be nice to choose between full square highlights, hatched highlights and my personal choice - a highlight around the edge of the square.

 

I looked for the options but can only see a way to turn highlights on or off, not change their style. Is there an option?  And if not can we please have one added?

I agree, the blue inverted kinda squares are hard to see. I'd rather have a square outline highlighting.

Not sure if anyone sees this, but that would be great :)

Seven years later, still not a feature, and still totally agree with y'all! BTW, Donald Trump is gonna be president for a stretch. Strap in.

The square moved from and moved to are highlighted if you have the setting on.

You can't do what the OP posts asks but if you use a web browser and have a keyboard you can highlight.

Thanks I found the arcade setting in options that does the job, the extra animations are a bit annoying but the highlighting is much better now.

All animation types allow arrows and highlights along with different colors

Not with site provided options. You could potentially override CSS client side
