First, since this is my first post, let me give the obligatory "I love Pleco!" out of the way. As a beginner to Mandarin I have plowed my way through Pimsleur, Rosetta, Pod, Popup, FSI, Tuttle Flashcards, Anki, and several online dictionaries and apps. While many of those proved to be helpful and good in many ways, I must say I have a special place in my heart for the little blue fish, Pleco is my favorite weapon in my arsenal of weapons with which I attack Mandarin.
I only have one knock on Pleco, the flashcard system. I find it incredibly unintuitive and confusing. I don't grasp what a lot of the setting are for and wish there was a simplified interface to go along with an optional "advanced" interface for when I eventually become a poweruser.
My question is, and I did search these forums but did not find an answer, is how do I create sentence flashcards? I've read through the excellent post on using flashcards created by llamamama, and she mentions using sentence flashcards. How do I create those? Pleco doesn't recognize sentences, just vocabulary and I have no clue how to create a 'custom' flashcard. Help please!
