掲示板 Forums - Automatically show all kanji regardless of mastery (but with furigana?)
Top > renshuu.org > Feature Requests/Improvements
Hello, new here! Not sure if I missed a particular setting (feel free to move the topic if I did). I'm jumping around the levels a bit (doing grammar alongside words for Japanese Basics), and some of the grammar questions are quite difficult to parse as pure hiragana because the kanji hasn't been "learnt" yet. I'm also fluent in Chinese, so I'm more comfortable parsing sentences with kanji, though I need the furigana to remind myself how things are read.
Basically, what I want is for kanji to be shown regardless, but for furigana to show up if it hasn't been properly mastered yet. (Or even better, to enable 'furigana hints' when studying something like grammar but remove the furigana when studying vocab/kanji.)
Is this possible to implement? I know there's a setting for vocabulary level, but I'm hesitant to set that as 'advanced' since I haven't actually learned their meanings/pronunciation in Japanese yet.
This setting does exist! You have to click on your settings, then change the drop down menu in settings from "my info" to "vocabulary." Then change the setting for "show unknown kanji like this" to the first option - kanji with furigana. This is the setting I use, too. I hope this helps!
Okay, I got a screenshot here. The answers in pure hiragana are much harder to guess than with the kanji. For me the kanji gives a hint as to what the word is supposed to be.
I also think it doesn't help that the study/review has the large unknown kanji showing, so I'm more likely to commit the kanji to memory. Additionally I think I'm more likely to be reading the word with the kanji context in practice, so I prefer to have it all in kanji (and grind pronunciations separately, e.g. questions where they give you the word and you have to select the pronunciation.)
Hope that makes sense!
I use all kanji, too hehe. go to Manage Schedules > All Schedules, then click through and set all the kanji schedules to 100% mastered 
and welcome to renshuu! 加油！

ahh yes I see what you mean, I’m sorry I don’t know how to change that either without marking all kanji as known as the person above me mentioned, which I also don’t want to do yet because I’d still like to study them individually.

Same here... :[ I don't want to skip steps even though I have knowledge from Chinese because I want to study the little nuances. Thank you for offering a suggestion anyway, though!
I hope this can be implemented as a feature eventually...
Hi. I hope I can be of some help as this was bugging me as well. It's super difficult to read all hiragana and I prefer to use Kanji.
I think the user above was close to fixing the problem but you need one more step.
- Go to Vocabulary and pick your preferred Kanji setting
- Set Kanji level and it will take you to a page to set your level.
I personally moved my bar all the way up and maxed out a few of the chapters of some of the textbooks.
I added screenshots below with the final one showing what my quizzes look like after changing the settings.

Hi following up. So there is a trade off. If you know a lot of Kanji it will show some words that are commonly written in hiragana in Kanji.
If you dont mind that it's fine.
If you do then the only solution I can think of is to change the mastery level to 0.
I hope this helped.
