Mnemosyne is absolutely terrific.  However, I still haven't figured out how to isolate a subset of cards for study.  I see where the documentation says, "In the 'Activate cards' dialog, you can select which cards you want to study based on a number of criteria..."

But where is the "activate cards" dialog?

I currently have 287 cards for a particular course, and I can see how it could grow to 800+.  Naturally, I need to be able to create subsets to study.

Thanks!

Hi,

Have a look under the 'Study' menu. Make sure you use the latest version, though.

Cheers,

Peter

Hey, Peter.

Thank you very much!

I'm actually using the version obtain from https://portableapps.com/, so it's possible that the Portable Apps folks haven't updated it to the most recent version.

So, yes, I'll follow your guidance and download the newest version.  

Unfortunately, I posted this same request a second time, because I was unable to locate it after the first post.  I'll attempt to delete the second posting.  If I can't, sorry about that.

Thanks again!

Hey, Peter:

I recently downloaded and installed version 2.6 for Windows, and I'm running it under Windows 10.  I'm not seeing "Activate Cards" under the Study menu.  I'm only seeing
  • Scheduled --> forgotten --> new
  • Study new unlearned cards only
  • Cram all cards
  • Cram recently learned new cards
Is there something I'm missing?  (For some reason, I'm unable to upload a screen capture.)

Thanks again.

Hi,

 

Here’s a screenshot from my machine: (De)activate card… (Cntrl+D) is the first option in the Study menu.

 

 

Perhaps you have two monitors at different dpis? The toolkit we use sometimes has issues with that. Try and see if it works if you only have a single monitor.

 

Cheers,

 

Peter

Hey, Peter:

I goofed...it's all on me, my friend.

I DO have the (De)activate cards submenu.  I simply wasn't paying sufficient attention.  Thank you very much.
