Description
Currently on Lichess, clicking an empty square on the board automatically clears all drawn arrows. Accidental clicks often erase complex drawings during deep analysis, which is frustrating.
Could you consider adding a LiChess Tools option for the following?
- Prevent clearing arrows on empty board clicks: Keep drawn arrows visible even when clicking empty squares.
- Add a "Clear All Arrows" button: Place a small trash icon outside the board area to clear arrows manually when the above option is enabled.
