That's OK, thanks for the honesty and thanks for developing this great 
application :) It was the main tool I used to get my dream job so I'm very 
grateful!

 The single box is pretty good. IMO the "fixed size" option can be 
 enhanced by allowing the user to drag to resize the boxes' proportion to 
 whatever suits them (saved either for the current application run only or 
 in the config file across application runs) .

The reason it doesn't show up very well is because you have a black
background. I'll add your suggestions to my todo list, but I'm afraid
they're not very high on the list...

 Hi all,

 Is there any way to resize the Question and Answer boxes? I keep
 questions rather terse, whereas the Answer contains a block of 
 programming
 code that's long.

 I noticed there's an option under the "General" tab called "Show
 question and answer in two boxes with adaptive size" but that makes no
 difference at all to the "in two boxes with fixed size" default option.

 Here is a screenshot of it having no effect on a short question and
 long answer:

 A simple drag slider would be so handy!

Re: [mnemosyne-proj-users] No way to resize Q & A Boxes

2023-06-16 Thread Neil F 
It's true, but it's user-controlled so it's optional. It will cater to both 
groups:

1. The group of users who have short questions and long answers--or for 
whatever reason wants to see more of the answer box than the question box 
or vice versa--can resize the boxes to suit their preference.
2. The group of users who have wildly varying question and answer sizes and 
for whom this feature is not useful won't resize.

The resize widget is very muted, so most users won't even notice it until 
they look for it.

That said, the "Single Box" option is very good, it's just that it doesn't 
show the separation between question and answer, which looks a bit 
confusing: https://i.imgur.com/z7k8kQh.png

 The adaptive mode can work very simply: just restrict the box size to
 the text. So if there are only 3 lines of text, there is really no need to
 show 5 blank lines above and below, so that the answer box is crammed.
 Seems like an obvious UX to me, not sure why it's not the default.

2023-06-12 Thread Peter Bienstman 
The problem is that after some library changes, it's no longer easy to
figure out how many lines a card is. Note that this depends on font size,
width of your window,...

Bit I guess I make the single box the default in the future.

Or the "Fixed size" option where you can drag the slider to choose the 
respective fixed size of the Q and A boxes.

I see, thanks for the explanation.
The adaptive mode can work very simply: just restrict the box size to the 
text. So if there are only 3 lines of text, there is really no need to show 
5 blank lines above and below, so that the answer box is crammed.
Seems like an obvious UX to me, not sure why it's not the default.

The adaptive option is based on a heuristic which an upgrade to the library
broke.

I'd suggest you use the single box option.

Cheers,

[mnemosyne-proj-users] No way to resize Q & A Boxes

2023-06-11 Thread Neil F 
Hi all,

Is there any way to resize the Question and Answer boxes? I keep questions 
rather terse, whereas the Answer contains a block of programming code 
that's long.

I noticed there's an option under the "General" tab called "Show question 
and answer in two boxes with adaptive size" but that makes no difference at 
all to the "in two boxes with fixed size" default option. 

Here is a screenshot of it having no effect on a short question and long 
answer:

A simple drag slider would be so handy!
