Hi everyone,

I'm wondering if there's a good way to delete characters. My problem is that I enthousiastically added many not-so-relevant characters in my queue that turn out to be difficult to remember, given that I still don't know the basic elements they often contain. Now I searched the forum and found the following recommendation by George, dated Sept 2009:

-----
You can go the vocabulary page and delete specific characters, words, sections, or lists.

Finally, you can take a more organic approach, and simply click the "next" button each time you see something you don't want to learn. Skritter interprets skipping characters as an indication you know it. You'll have to do this many times to never see it again, but it's relatively quick.

The first possibility (going to the vocab section) is a bit messy, a huge list I don't like to scroll through. The second is like cheating, it will show the character as learned while it is not actually.

What I would prefer is a simple button during the regular skrittering session, so that I can just kick out those annoyingly difficult characters that reappear all over.

Thanks for your comments!
Best,
Chris

Click on the little hourglass on the right. There is a delete button inside the window that appears.

Hi jww1066,
It's a magnifying glass for me but yes it works great, thanks!

LOL I'm losing my English skills thanks to studying other languages so much...

How do I delete individual words? When I click oin the magnifying glass I no longer see an option to delete.

Now the pop-up lists each part with an option to delete each one separately. It give you a bit more work but saves space.

Turn all the red circles with dashes to green circles with pluses and you'll have deleted all parts for the word.
