strange maximising of Mnemosyne app window

[Samuel Marcius]

Hi everybody,

I downloaded the great flash card collection at http://mnemosyne-proj.org/cards/quick-german-germanenglish-and-englischdeutsch

The first cards worked perfectly for me, but then the app suddenly expanded to a max ( in my case over two 19" monitors).

Below the icons, where it says "Questions" a long line appears, which seems to be the reason for it.

Even when the app jumps to another card, and the "Questions" line changes to something different, the size remains the same and doesn't go back to its original windows size.

Has anybody experienced this problem? I contacted the creator of the cardset already, but he things it might me a problem with the app, not the cards.

Is there a way to "disable" the "Questions"-line? I'm not sure if I really need it at all.
Or, maybe easier, what should I change in the *.cards file to prevent such long line?

Thanks for your feedback/help.

S.M.

Hi,

This is because there are so many tags on this card.

Should be trivial to fix by enabling word wrap in that field.

This will be in the upcoming maintenance release.

Cheers,

Peter

Hi,

The fix was trivial, but it turns out there is bug in the current version of the GUI toolkit we use which means that as a side effect of this fix the resizing of the height of the Q and A windows would break...

Hopefully this will be in a next version of this toolkit, but for the time being it's probably best to re-evaluate if you really need that many tags on each card...

Cheers,

Peter
