What's New in This Release: [ read full changelog ]
· The premade cards from the old 1.x website have now all been converted to the new 2.x cards format and put on the new website. This will make importing much easier, as graphics are bundled (thanks to Patrick Kenny for the conversion).
· For txt import, a text file can now contain a fourth column which will be mapped to the 'notes' field of a Vocabulary card.
· When editing or browsing cards, don't reset the state of the scheduler such that you need to press 'show answer' again or such that a new card appears (reported by Gnome).
· Remember which tags where expanded/collapsed in the tag tree (requested a.o by Troy Guze).
· Correctly update flag 'hide pronunciation' in the popup menu (reported by Tom Cato Amundsen).
· When merging duplicate cards, merge tags also (requested by Stephan Maseizik).
· Fix regression where all the dialogs would have generic names ('mnemosyne') as opposed to e.g. 'Add cards'.
· Correctly format clozes in latex, e.g. [Lorentz force law] [\mathbf{F}]=[q]([\mathbf{E}]+[\mathbf{v}\times\mathbf{B}] ()requested by acdenh). If you want literal [] in latex, use \left[ and \right].
· Fix crash when converting multiple cards at the same time between e.g. Vocabulary card type and Map card type (reported by Gnome).
· No longer allow mass converting of cards to Cloze card types, as this requires editing of the card content for each card anyhow (reported by Scott Youngman).
· Fix browser crash occuring after deleting a card type which had custom formatting (reported by Tom Zerlau).
· Unless the 'Prefill tag behaviour' plugin is active, changing card types will never change the tag you already filled in, even if it's different from the last used tag (reported by Gnome).
· When changing the font for '', make a more neutral choice for default font in case currently different card types have different fonts (reported by Gnome).
· Make sync and sync error handling more robust.
· In case you don't explicitly select a background colour, use your theme's background colour as opposed to white for empty cards (reported by ialectum).
· The quote key to left of 1 (`) can now also be used as a short cut for grade 0 (requested by Kent Stearman).
· In the card browser, CTRL+F can be used to focus the input on the search field (requested by abacus).
· Improve the position of dialogs popping up from the card browser, sync window, ... .
· Fix crash pressing the 'Delete' key in the 'Activate cards' dialog (reported
· by Gnome).
· When changing card types, only warn about losing history when there is actual history present (reported by Gnome).
· In case you are not using saved sets and create a new tag whose parent is inactive, make the new tag inactive too. (If you have a saved set active, you'll get a dialog box asking whether you want to activate that tag or not, just like before) (reported by Gnome).
· Fix bug in interaction between Latex system and exporting to the 'cards' format (reported by Gwern).
· More tweaks for RTL languages like Arabic and Hebrew (bug report by Ansgar Bohmann).
· No more superfluous empty lines for cards with RTL languages.
· When changing languagues, translate the window title immediately, instead of after reboot.
· On a Thai system, don't use Thai numerals in the card browser if the language is set to English (requested by Mark).
· Take time zone information into account when displaying creation date of card in browser.
· When renaming a saved set, prefill the name field with the previous name of the set.
· Don't reset selected plugin when importing a new plugin (reported by Gnome).
· When trying to deactivate a card type in use, show name of the card type in the error message.
· Fix CTRL+F shortcut for inserting flash, CTRL+D for inserting video, and CTRL+C for copying (reported by Gnome).
· Tab key now cycles through all the grade buttons (reported by Gnome).
· Fix grading shortcuts R and W for 'right' and 'wrong' in the cramming scheduler.
· Backspace and delete shortcuts to delete the current card work again (reported by Dylan Gordhan).
