Well the enlarged pattern has made it easier but I have found that the designer decided to use < and > or P and p so many of the symbols are similar and the colors are close. It is a good thing that it is a color/symbol chart. But still I wish the symbols were a bit more diverse. :? Oh well it is getting along
