Ordering Sentences by the Difficulty Level

[smarko1983]

Hi. I noticed that when I search for a word and go to sents (sentences), it shows the sentences which are all mixed up by the difficulty level. Would it be possible to sort them out by the HSK level or the level of difficulty from easiest to hardest? Something similar exists in many dictionaries, Cambridge for example.

Not currently supported, but we've added a 'sentence breakdown analyzer' function for our next major update that we plan to use for stuff like this.

Hello Mike,

that sounds wonderful. Does the sentence breakdown analyzer check the difficulty level of each word that it finds and knows in the sentence, or is it even more sophisticated than that? No problem if it's still a bit secret.

Thanks,

Shun

It's already in the 4.0 beta, it's just well hidden - shows up as a custom filter and a custom sort field, basically "apply these numerical weights / conditions to the breakdown of words/characters in this field."

Thanks! I see, the Expert mode UI surely speeds up the development of many user-facing features.
