Friday's Killer doesn't solve in the solver!

To Ayumu and Davin - You both are absolutely correct. I had erroneously interpreted the description in the Bird Exocet document to imply two cases for the cover-houses 1) orthogonal to the cover lines or 2) 1 parallel and 1 orthogonal. That is not the case as you both observed. Thank you for the correction.

why can we not see the solutions for the other levels in the daily puzzles? only the level that initially loads up.

The Jigsaw Sudoku print function is not printing the puzzle.

Hi Andrew,
Working on the nice example of XY-Chain appearing in the Daily Sudoku of 10/22, I noticed that while symbol 2 is actually highlighted in green or red at the chain ends, in the solved grid, the solution is symbol 2 at both ends.
I can assume that this is possible because of the weak links, but I still can't figure out exactly why ? Is there some more to say to explain this ? For example, does the length of the chain have something to do with this ? Are there examples of chains having same ends and different lengths ?
Many thanks and the best.
Sid

Hi, the "print" page of the Killer Solver shows only the column`'s numbers and the row's letters. Ctrl +f5 does not work. Can you solve this problem?

Hi.

I want to suggest that the highlighting function of the solver primarily uses high-contrast colors (red & green for instance) no matter which number is highlighted. For instance, 6:s & 7:s are very hard to spot against the white background and the 2:s and 4:s are the easiest.

Hi just want to know how to import/create the custom shape in "Killer Jigsaw Solver". I can create the cages, but cannot the shape. I notice there's custom one to create or import, but failed.

So how should I create it?

WHY DO I GET THE RESPONSE "reset_yes_no: no row called RUR1"

Hello,

I've been enjoying your solver and your many lessons on the techniques.

I took up sudoku a few months ago and I sit comfortably at the diabolical level now, doing the level 4 sudoku of the day whenever I can.

However, I've noticed that I could not solve some of the last few daily puzzles, and when I gave up and used the "solve path" option, I saw that it required X-Cycles with ALS, listed as diabolical. Is that considered diabolical considering ALS are listed as an Extreme level technique? In my view, combining any AIC (including X-Cycles) with other techniques such as ALS or UR increases the difficulty by a lot.

It's just a silly question, but I hope you can share your insight.
