Thanks for helping!

I don't know how to use kvoctrain, but the little I tinkered yesterday, I believe the way you obtain the same screen grab is to open an example.

From the File menu, select Open Example.

At this point, to duplicate original (corrupt) screen grab, I don't know whether you want to open the English or German example. All I know is you need TDE configured with the German language.

After opening the appropriate example, use the Learning menu. From there, as appropriate, choose de or en, and then choose Train Verbs or Verbs, whichever is appropriate.

You'll have to play a bit until you obtain the desired dialog. Use ksnapshot to save the image and post somewhere or attach to a list email.

The original German screen grab used the default colors and keramik theme. The default English screen grab does not. Something close the the default image probably is best. Use your judgment --- the goal is to capture the same dialog in the German language. :-)

Thank you!
