Viewing more dictionary info after flashcard reveal

This is regards flashcards: Is there a way in Pleco 4.0 or legacy to display ALL of your dictionary entry info once you hit reveal all?

Basically what is in the DICT tab in the (i) button. But I don't want to click there I just want to see it and scroll down as needed.

Short that, I'd love to see examples, full entries, and if possible multiple dictionary entries in the box once I hit reveal sound and meaning.

Thanks!

You can get examples to show by turning on the option to show those in Settings / Flashcards / Test Settings.

There's not currently an easy way to get at the whole definition screen without tapping on the (i) button. But with a custom test type you could:

a) add an automatic action to pop up the card info screen after a card is revealed
b) put the (i) button somewhere easier to reach than the top bar (this could also be done through a custom 'test screen')
c) configure a remap on the definition ('entry body' field) to replace it with matching entries from all of your dictionaries, though you'd probably also need to create a new presentation that displayed the dictionary name on top

So the capability is there, which means we could also pretty easily offer a streamlined option for any of those things if we get enough requests for one.
