On the final step of theme creation, you are given the opportunity to evaluate the theme layout and identify any problematic areas that have a limited number of possible word completions. In this case, 4D has the fewest completions with 8 total options (see the table below).

It may be useful to see how our current layout compares with the position of the words swapped. The area below the table offers some options to compare the options.

If our current layout has too many problem spots, this provides a quick way to compare alternate word layouts. Here is an example when the outer words are swapped in our example.

We can see that with the outer words swapped, 47D only has one potential option "THURM", so this might not be the best alternative. If we did want to apply this change to our word positions, we could click the "Apply" button to update our grid.
