Can't find "Avoid Ambiguous Characters" in Mac version 5.3.2

edwalker

I see this option in previous version but I can't seem to find it. Am I missing the obvious?

Hi @edwalker,

Are you asking about that option in the password generator? If so, you'll need to make sure you're viewing the Password Recipe, and also make sure the option for Pronounceable is un-checked.

Hopefully this helps, but if you have more questions or need anything else, just let us know! :)

I don't mind the ambiguous characters in the passwords but is there a way to write a zero such that it is obvious (such as a zero with a slash through it)? Thanks.

It appears to me that the password generator currently does use zeros with slashes.

Hi @dsm363 ,

Please let me know if you're seeing something different than the screenshot that Hawkmoth posted. We're careful to ensure that there is distinction between similar characters. One of the ways that we do this is using a unicode font for the password typeface, and we've also changed the colour of digits and symbols in the password to help them stand out.

Ah, my fault. I had a generated password with what looked like a Zero that I couldn't cut and paste. It turned out to be a O and worked. It works fine, thanks. The zero you display above makes everything clear.

Hi @dsm363 ,

I'm glad to hear you've got things sorted out - thanks for letting us know! :)
