Hello again everyone. It’s been a long time since I’ve looked at any of these higher-dimensional puzzles but am I glad I came back! What an astounding program you have Andrey!

I’ve given it a test drive with a quick solve of the 3^4 (about 500 moves which is average for me, solve took about an hour). I’ve noticed something inconvenient - at least for the way I solve the cube. When you highlight pieces by colour (which is an excellent feature which I use heavily) and perform a move, the pieces that are highlighted don’t stay highlighted. Instead, the positions where those pieces were stay highlighted. If this could be fixed in the next release I’ll likely use this program exclusivity for solving 4D cubes (I may even try the 4^4 and 5^4 again :D)

Again, this is truly an amazing program!

Cheers,
Noel Chalmers
