Two XG questions

Hi guys. Long time . . . :)

Question 1: Has anyone been able to get XG to use a bearoff database when analyzing a match? I've tried the default DB and also created a slightly larger DB with the built-in tool. But when I use World Class preset analysis (or a custom analysis with my larger DB), bearoffs still show up analyzed normally with XG++.

When a match analysis shows an opening roll or opening reply that is taken from from Opening Book, I see a special icon showing the result is from Opening Book. I've never seen an icon showing a result is from a bearoff DB. Have you?

Question 2: Has anyone figured out a hack to analyze a match and have every cube decision rolled out automatically?

Under Options / Analysis / Custom Setting / Use different settings for cube, I get a drop down menu letting me set the "First Pass" to any analysis level up to XG++, but Rollout is grayed out. I can select Rollout for 2nd Pass under the conditions of If Different, If Error, If Blunder, If Outplay, but checking all of them does not guarantee a rollout will be performed. (If the played cube action matches the First Pass analysis it will not fall into any of the categories, and the subsequent analysis will not be performed.)

Has anyone figured out a way past this to get all cube actions in a match automatically rolled out automatically?

Thanks much -- J
