I noticed recently that the way “pronunciation” or whatever and “meaning” is displayed has changed recently. It’s a bit annoying. Used to be where I could press a button on the keyboard and it would pop up with the corresponding sub-lesson, like if I’m guessing the pronunciation, I’d press “F” after and the pronunciation would pop up. Same goes for the meaning. Now I press “F” and it seems kinda random, like sometimes one pops up, sometimes the other. Sometimes I’ll miss the meaning a second time and the pronunciation will pop up and I’ll have to click to show the meaning.
What’s up with this? Are Reviews going to adapt this eventually as well?
I’ve noticed the same. Especially during lessons, I’m programmed to hit “f” after answering to reveal the answer to what’s currently being quizzed (meaning or reading), then ENTER SPACE (sheesh it’s so wired into my fingers and not my brain that I forgot the key) to expand everything if desired. It no longer works reliably.
I’d ascribed it to recent changes and was waiting to see if it settles out before submitting a bug report, but I’d also hate to see that functionality go away (I hate reaching for my mouse unnecessarily).
Thanks for the feedback, we are working on a new UI for lessons which will indeed be applied to the reviews eventually but there are still a couple of tweaks required first. I will make sure to pass this on to our engineers.
I’m afraid I’m not aware of the specifics, but a similar issue has been mentioned already to the engineers so I know they are working on this currently.
Thank you! I also agree with what’s been said here, I constantly use the “old” functionality of pressing F to see what’s currently being quizzed and then SPACE to expand it all if I want.
It would be a huge pity to change it so that you have to use the mouse (how it currently seems to be changing to in the lessons) - in my opinion the previous setup was perfect how it was (and imo it also looked a bit better than the new UI appearing in lessons )
i’ve noticed this too. changes to the GUI are fine, i don’t think it matter much either way.
what definitely isn’t fine is breaking keyboard shortcuts, and forcing the user to use the mouse instead of the keyboard. in particular when doing rapid reviews that breaks the workflow.
Links in context sentences are not rendered correctly. Can be reproduced on both Firefox/Windows and Firefox/Mint, latest versions. Only during lessons, not during reviews or on item page.
The whole patience thing is almost harder than learning kanji.
I just want to confirm that a fix for the spacebar issue is still expected? It’s driving me nuts having to reach for my mouse occasionally. The f key seems to be reliably twirling open the correct one, but spacebar still isn’t expanding the other sections.
