Answers.Text: Correct. It's Create your own game, then Utilities->Change the initial position->Paste FEN position. It was hard to find because, for one thing, I don't want to create a game, only set a position up, and for another, I don't want to change the *initial* position. This is not the only Lucas feature where it's not obvious which menu it's under.

Body: <p>How can I input a position into Lucas Chess, in order to view the underlying engine's analysis through Lucas Chess's GUI? The position would be specified in FEN.</p>
  <p>Under its menu Tools-&gt;PGN, Lucas Chess offers the features of reading a PGN file or pasting PGN. Is there really no simpler way than to create a PGN file with the FEN tag, and get Lucas Chess to read that? That would be a workaround, but it's a clumsy one.</p>
