Hi,
I'm just starting to play around with this beta.
It's great to see the changes to the flashcards to force cards into the checking pool.
One feature which would make this even more useful: when you add a card (using the + button in the dictionary), could it bring up the 'card editing screen' (what comes up when you press 'i' in the Manage Flashcards section)? This would let you make any changes you want, or force the card into the pool at that point. Otherwise, you have to add the card, then remember to go into the Manage Cards area, search for the card and change it's settings.
For me, I find that throughout the day I am adding cards, some of which I know when I add them that I want them to go straight into the queue. Others I just want to be in my word database, but am not bothered when they come up. It would work better in this scenario if I can make changes or force the card into the pool at the time I add it, rather than trying to remember (but usually forgetting) to do all the editing etc later in the day.
(Maybe there would need to be a preferences option for this, so it could turned off for people who prefer the old way?)
Thanks.
Ben
