![]() ![]() (you can also have those generated automatically for new cards if you like that aspect of Anki and want to keep it, or you can use a batch command - which is now another arcane and rule-based thing like the flashcard scheduler and with instant previews like the importer - to merge those child cards back into the parent card if you'd like to have Pleco take care of choosing cards for you instead)Īt the moment the Anki importer simply brings Anki cards into our database (including images / audio, that's what all of those ugly Markdown ! links are - we do user text formatting in Markdown now), but there's enough abstraction between the flashcard system and the underlying database that in the future we might also add the option for Pleco to keep its database in Anki format (even to the point of doing tests in it), at least for iOS users who don't have the option of Anki API integration. We've dealt with the Anki note versus card business in Pleco by turning the Anki note into a regular Pleco flashcard but then turning each Anki card into a 'child card' which inherits its fields from the parent but retains its own scheduling info. In 4.0 the underlying flashcard scheduler is very arcane and programmer-y - made up of arbitrary filters + rules - but then to make this intelligible to users we also have a couple of premade templates that will automatically configure all of that for you at the moment there's one which emulates our old flashcard system, a new simple default one that's kind of trying to be 'friendly SRS' (repetition spacing only for 'learning' cards, for everything else it just tries to fill up the amount of time you want to give it with old reviews), and then this one which emulates Anki settings. Since it's relevant to this thread anyway, here are some screenshots of the Anki import dialog and the Anki profile type test settings in the big long-awaited "Pleco 4.0" update we're working on.
