old ancient hieroglyphs

Hallo.
Does anybody know how to switch off old hieroglyph from flashcards?
I add hieroglyph from dictionary into flashcards, and then lad style hieroglyphs added in it.
It is very inconvenient to look at lad style hieroglyphs in flashcards, whent i doesn't need them to know at all.

Flashcard Testing / Card Text / Force character set, Simp-only. You can also disable them system-wide via Settings / Dictionary / Entry Display / Headword mode -> One Set Only. (the more common English term for them is "traditional characters," by the way)

This is actually a very common mistranslation of "traditional characters" from other languages, so common that I barely even notice it anymore - "traditional Chinese characters" aren't a term that you're likely to find in a French-English or German-English dictionary. I daresay if I tried to say "traditional characters" in French that my translation would be less-than-entirely-idiomatic too...

Same here. In Thai we call them full/complete form and abbreviated from.
