Notes 



Objective / Rules
Fill every row and column with exactly one A, B, and C (and two blank squares).
The clues tell you which letter appears first in that direction in each row or column.

Help
Read the help / walkthrough page on ABC View puzzles for a more detailed explanation and a walkthrough.

Pencil Marks
What is a pencil mark? Pencil marks can help you keep track of your own thinking, simply enter more than one digit / letter into each square, just like you might do if you were using pen and paper. The size of the digits / letters is smaller when there is more than one digit / letter in a square. A square might contain more pencil mark digits / letters than can be shown.

Usage
Note: only when supported by your computer / device / browser / etc.
Clicking 'pencil' or entering 'p' = auto-places pencil marks (updates A, B and C only)

X is treated as a blank square.

CTRL + arrows = move around the grid (you might need to press SHIFT as well).
SHIFT + 1 = highlight all squares containing A as a pencilmark.
SHIFT + 2 = highlight all squares containing B as a pencilmark.
SHIFT + 3 = highlight all squares containing C as a pencilmark.
SHIFT + 0 = clear highlighted squares.

"Show squares with a pencil mark..." highlights all squares with that letter as a pencil mark.

Checking
If you click 'check' the system will check for incorrect squares. If 'show mistakes when checking' is ticked / checked they will be marked in red. The system only checks squares that contain one large A, B C, or X, and ignores all others. If 'highlight clues' is checked any clue where A, B or C appears first in the row / column will be highlighted – this does not mean that your answer is correct.

Uniqueness
This puzzle has exactly one correct answer, which can be found using logic and deduction alone, and no guesses are required. If you think that you have found another answer, then please check the rules carefully for a reason the other answer isn't allowed.
