Chess board is flipped during analysis

I'm not sure how to explain this.. during post game analysis, when I hover the mouse over the best lines to play, the board is flipped, black and white pieces. Makes it very hard to visualize the board. Does anyone know a solution? It's not just a matter of hitting the Flip Board option..

the should be a button in the shape of two arrows forming a circle that will flip the board

Thanks for responding, Biggestpie. I'm aware of the flip board switch. It doesn't solve my problem however.

If you're talking about the engine lines at the top when using self-analysis, I think it may have always been that way.

It was not always that way.  They recently broke this.

As far as I'm aware, this is fixed for the Lines in analysis and matches the board orientation.

This is a strange one. I looked yesterday and the mini-board (let's call it) didn't match the main analysis board. I was analysing a game I played as black, with black at the bottom, yet the board for the engine lines had white at the bottom. It really should match the orientation of the board you are analysing, in an ideal situation.

Funny thing is I commented on someone else's post about it a couple weeks ago. At first they were complaining of the same issue (mini-board not oriented with the main board) then later responded to me to say it was oriented correctly meh.png highly confusing.

Either way it's even more confusing now since I literally just checked a couple of my games (mid-writing this post) and the mini-board does orient with the main board, even when I switched orientation, with the flip board button, it's working as it should.

Seems a bit buggy to me. The fix you mention, is that a recent thing?

I know it had been posted as a bug in the Beta a few weeks ago, was fixed under lines but not under the board under the eval/move annotation, and that was also reported. So, it's possible it was fixed fully recently.
