Beta 23 Nov Card Notes

Hi Richard,

I have now downloaded 23 Nov Beta and am having a play with it. Nice Work with the tabs and the reversed images, Richard. :-)

I couldn't see the Preview (Zoom) large card button on there, did you temporarily remove it because of time constraints? I hope so, as it is a feature that I use.

I can see the Activate button toggles between LWB vs Personal Notes (v.nice, btw), but your wording (with OFF in brackets) is a little bit confusing. Do you need the word Off there at all? I wasn't sure whether clicking Activate would turn it Off, or whether it was Off.

Also, when composing the Reading Notes, is your software going to be intuitive enough to recognise that there are reversed cards in the reading and therefore only copy the reversed notes for those cards into the reading notes? Or, will it copy both regardless?

Thanks

The Zoom button is the same as the Zoom function on the main menu that can be activated with the F7 key. It was in both places for historical reasons, but when I redesigned the form I thought there was not really any need for duplicating it.

I also got rid of the Copy Card button. I figured that this would have to be enhanced (i.e. does the user want to copy the upright image or the reversed image?) and this was also not really needed because all cards are Windows forms, and any Windows form can be copied to the clipboard by pressing Alt Gr in conjunction with Print Screen on the keyboard. I will include something in the help file to that effect.

Hi Richard,

I never noticed F7 on the menu before you mentioned it here.

Thanks,
