I am playing chess (live) and using my left clicker, but cannot draw arrows or highlight squares. I think it might be the mouse, but is there something else?

It's the right clicker. Did you turn it on in settings?

The drag pieces part?

No, the right button draws arrows and highlights part.

Thank you Notmtwain.

Because you don't draw the arrows, you draw the bow.

it is a good way to save ammo though batgirl , ie plucking the arrow from a fallen foe ,

I have the setting turned on and i'm right clicking but it still won't let me draw arrows. as far as I know i'm doing it right. I've tried on a mac and a Chromebook and it won't work on either. anybody know the problem?

I assume you are right-clicking and while holding down the button you are dragging from the start to destination square.

I got this same problem, I found that on Opera (Navigator i use) there are some sistem of mouse gesture with right clicks to make navigation easier, i disabled that, refreshed the page and now i see the arrows and can use the right click to make them

I also have realized that the problem might be because of your browser, for example, mine seems to not work in Opera, however, when I use it in google chrome itself, it seems to work again.

Opera Browser has a built in functionality for right click gestures. Like "Right click and swipe left" will go to th previous page. Or "Right click and swipe right" wil take you to the next etc. There are lots of gestures. 

I recomment turning this feature off for opera (Or other browsers). 

I also use Opera and arrows started working after I turned of this feature.

Is the a premium option or has it been changed?
 It doesn't seem to be where it should be...
