Overview

This is the main window of Parley. It consists of two areas: the lesson list in the left third of the window and the current vocabulary list in the other two thirds.

The lesson list

The lesson list on the left shows all lessons in your vocabulary file. If you mark a lesson, it will become the current one. In this case it is survival training.

The ticked box left of the name of each lesson indicates that it is to be included in the practice. You may choose as many lessons for a test as you like.

The vocabulary list

Depending on your selection, one or more lessons are displayed on the right side of the screen.

If you mark a range of entries to work with, their background color changes. Many editing functions work for multiple entries simultaneously.

The color in the column with the original will vary if you have two or more columns with translations. If the cursor is in one of the translations the color represents its grade “to the original”. See section entry dialog for more on this.

The search bar

The search bar is located above the vocabulary table.

You can use the search bar to filter your vocabulary. If you type in a string, you will only see entries with this string in the vocabulary table.

The status bar

The status bar is located at the bottom of the main window. It is empty at the moment.
