be nice to be able to repeat a quote as practice
By user48941 - updated: 9 years, 10 months ago - 10 messages
Given that it is certain combinations of keystrokes that cause difficulties, when a particular quote is hard, it would be nice, after the test, to be able to repeat it specifically in training mode.
I know I can look it up on my profile, and I could just type it in word or something, but the wpm feedback is nice, and it would be encouraging to see improvement with repetition.
Anybody else want to be able to do this? To repeat a given quote in training mode?
I STRONGLY agree. I looked through several pages of the forum just to see if anyone else had made a similar suggestion and found this thread. (If there is a search tool for this forum, I didn't see it). There are many times that I make a couple of mistakes and just pop the ESC key because I know that if I were to finish the quote, it'd just murder my average. But if there were a "best of three" or "best of five" option where my best score on three or five tries would be what would post to my average, then I'd be A LOT more inclined to soldier through it to get the combinations down and then give the same quote a couple more goes.

I agree with this.

This is always the major issue I have with this program. When you get to a great combination of words and letters that are difficult you want to work them over again and again to be the best at those combinations.

I also wish that this feature were available... I have often wished that I could repeat the test of a certain quote... some with tricky key stroke combinations and some that I just like the quote, and would like to repeat a couple of times. It seems that if you are familiar with a quote it helps your speed a bit, as opposed to typing one that you are also reading for the first time as you go.

I will work on that next. In the meantime, what you can do is use the custom text test at
http://www.keyhero.… It will let you repeat any text as many times as you wish.

Thanks for the tip. I had not noticed that feature. I'll check it out. Kudos on this site BTW.
