I have found that, in the flashcard review section, having the "flashcard x of y" data and the constantly updated number of passed/failed kanji is quite a distraction.
I end up worrying more about how many cards are left and how bad I'm doing today rather then about the kanji themselves.

Even if I try not to, I tend to continuously look at those numbers, since it only takes a tiny eye movement to see them.
My suggestion is to put an option that lets you hide those info and concentrate only on remembering the characters in front of you. Currently, I'm doing that by putting 2 small random windows over the unwanted parts, and it seems to be good for my reviews... but that' a rather ugly solution!

Does anyone else have the same problem?

I second this actually!  I had never thought about it, but if this option were available I would use it.

Wouldn't be easier to resize your browser so that you can't see the rightmost part?

That's true, but I like to keep my windows maximized. Besides, it would still be an improvised remedy, like the one I'm using now.

Those who use Greasemonkey might find these scripts useful:

* Kanji.Koohii: Zen Review - Hides everything but the card and the buttons. Just keep going until you're done. Don't worry about anything else.

* Kanji.Koohii: Hide Number Reviewed - Just hides the number of reviewed cards.



(Get Greasemonkey)

Whoah, I like that "Zen Review" idea, now add F11 (fullscreen view) and you're set!

Man! I'm ashamed, I should have searched a bit more myself. I thought I knew all the greasemonkey scripts for kanji.koohii out there, but these appear to be new.
Thank you Terhorst, I'll try these asap!

Wow, I've been trying the Zen Review script and it's exactly what I needed. I find it makes for much more relaxed and concentrated review sessions. The only thing I'm missing is the  "zoom kanji" little button, which I always used.

I just made them yesterday, so you wouldn't have found them.

Try changing the line:

Code:

reviewstats.parentNode.parentNode.style.visibility = "hidden";

to

Code:

reviewstats.style.visibility = "hidden";
