I was making a mnemonic just now for a character that has a ⺋ jie2 component in it. For some odd reason the top part of ⺋ isn't showing up, so it appears that there are two unconnected strokes, instead of two strokes that are connected.

Where is it not showing up, exactly? You could email me a screenshot--that might make it more clear.

hey Nick, how do I email screenshots ? How do I even take a picture of the screen?

It's not showing up in the mnemonic section

If you're on Windows with a normal keyboard, there'll be a print scn button in the top right, hit it, and the screenshot is copied to the clipboard. You can then paste it into Paint or something, and save as jpeg. If you're using a mac you should press shift-cmd 3 and the screenshot will appear on your desktop.

Hi Nick
If you want to take screenshots really easily download Screenhunter. It's free. I have never had any problems with it and I've used it for almost a year now.

I did get one screenshot of this and it looks like it's just an issue with the font rendering on some combination of browser, operating system, and font--not something we can do much about unless we wanted to change the font on the site, which might not help. Alas!

that's fine, no worries. Not a big deal at all
