David, Was working on a backlog of cards so I wasn't able to test out what you mentioned. Very sorry for the delay.

Perhaps Peter could comment on this and tell me if I am off the mark. I disabled learning new cards in random order and the shuffle queue plugin and I thought I got the same result eventually. > > If I give any [unmemorized] cards a grade of 1 or [0], they will be > > counted as forgotten, [so the] forgotten card number is no longer the > > number of scheduled cards that I have missed. > > I get that too and I agree that it's a little confusing.

Interesting. I never noticed that. I'm not sure why I would want to limit myself to just those few cards. That would seem to force you to give them passing grades if you wanted to move on to other cards. Seems like the setting for number of 0 cards to hold in hand should be the way to control that.

And if at the end of the day you still had cards with "memorization pending" how would it be dealt with the following day? Because you could have both types at once then. Two counters? Oy! Poor status bar. But that's all I can think of. Would "Learning" be more accurate than "memorization pending"? It's a tough one. I want to emphasize that I appreciate the plug in as is and the work you have put into it. I just want you to know how it behaves the way I use Mnemosyne. -BKh --~--~---------~--~----~------------~-------~--~----~ You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups "mnemosyne-proj-users" group.
