Go Images from SGF files
Posted: Sun Mar 13, 2016 4:46 am
What's the best programme to create game record images from positions in an SGF file, as PNG or other web-standard format?
I've been using Drago but it's "Export Position" feature spits out colour images that I find are a bit "busy" - I'd prefer black and white images like one gets in Go books - and the other Export feature spits out PDFs. Maybe there is a way to configure it to do more? (Many bonus points if "white" is actually transparent, outside of stones, so the image blends nicely into off-white backgrounds.)
The option to choose the move number at which to export (although, I guess, you could always truncate the SGF if you didn't want to export a final position.) and the option to choose how many prior moves are numbered would be necessary, too.
