I installed Google Drive to backup my flashcards because Pleco did not show Dropbox which I usually use. I backed up my flashcards with my tablet and wanted to restore the flashcards on my phone, but there is no way in Pleco to backup or restore flashcards or reader files with my phone, though I found the backup file with Google Drive on my phone. Do I miss any setting for cloud storage?
If the phone is running an Android version before 4.4, or an outdated version of Google Drive, it might not show up for that reason - Android 4.4 added that multi-service file picker interface ("Storage Access Framework") and it also needs to be enabled by an up-to-date app. For an older version of Android you'd need to go into the Google Drive app and save the file out to your SD card before you could open it in Pleco.
Is it possible to export flashcards using tone markers instead of numbers? When I need to show tone markes in an exported flashcard file I'm forced to use a not easy external converter pinyin-unicode! Thank you.

In effect, seems that there are several ways to obtain tone marks: so letters apparently identical are in effect differents.

I know that that is a real problem!

I used http://www.pinyinjoe.com/pinyin/pinyin_macro.htm long ago and remember it was quite easy to use - just a macro in Excel.
Excellent! Thank you very much!

I like the new dictionaries! There is one problem: some of the definitions of the Chinese Tea Terms (BCT) are very long. I first increased the maximum number of lines to 8, but still could not see the full definition. Then I reduced the font size for List definition considerably to see the full text, but I prefer to read with a bigger font size on my 9.7" tablet.
I would like a variable maximum # of lines in the List Layout: as much as necesseary to display the definition.
Edit: Problem solved - I just never used the DICT tab ...

Just noticed two small errors.
The third definition should be "klar werden" (not wrden, there is no such word in German. This one should be the same as the last word in the 2nd or 3rd definition)
"pinyin" makes no sense as a definition.
Are these worth reporting? Not sure on how dictionaries are used by pleco and whether these are mistakes of files provided by the publishers of the dictionaries or due to pleco itself

Thanks! Certainly worth reporting, yes - this was a digitization of an old print dictionary so mistakes like this will be fixed a lot faster by user feedback than by our own proofreading efforts. (have to dig around in the original dictionary to find out what was supposed to be there instead of 'pinyin' though)
