Board Sizes
If the board appears too large for your screen try one or more of the following:
1. Maximize your window.
2. Enable Auto-Hide for the Windows TaskBar. (so it will disappear when you're not using it)
3. Drag the Zillions Toolbar to the side or turn it off.
4. Drag the Zillions SearchProgress to the side or turn it off.
5. Disable Zillions Chat (you can't relocate this)
6. Disable Zillions Statusbar (you can't relocate this)
The boards for each mode were sized assuming the following settings
Maximized window
Taskbar set to Auto-Hide
Toolbar docked left
SearchProgress floating right
StatusBar on
Chat off
If the board is still too large you'll either need to change screen modes or
play on a
lower resolution board like 3D8L-1024x768.ZRF

1. Run "Zillions of Games"
2. Choose "Open Game Rules..." from the File menu
