Hi,
I've set up 2 decks of custom cards to review common grammar constructions and vocab. It's working beautifully so far but there are some points that I'd like to improve on. I was wondering if somebody had found a work around for:
1. Adding Pinyin tonemarks to the definition section of custom flashcards
In the definition section I'd like to add one or two example sentences in Pinyin. However, I cannot find a way to add Pinyin tonemarks to the text. Nor did I see a way to add other font style elements that I see being used in the definition sections of dictionaries such as PLC and TL (eg bold text).
Would anybody know how to add Pinyin tonemarks (or other font style elements) to the definition section of custom flashcards?
2. Adding non-Pinyin text to the Pinyin section of custom flashcards
Similarly, when adding non-Pinyin text to the Pinyin section it turns into gibberish after saving.
Is there a way to add non-Pinyin text to the Pinyin section of custom flashcard?
3. Adding mnemonics notes to custom flashcards
Also, at the moment I'm keeping an excel file with a column reserved for mnemonic notes (character, Pinyin, definition, mnemonic notes columns). Ideally I would like to add these notes to my flashcards, preferably in a separate section, instead of going back to the excel file each time I need to check up on my mnemonic.
For those that are using Tuttle/Matthews&Matthews, Heisig, or similar mnemonic aid, how are you adding your mnemonic notes to your flashcards (if at all)?
Would be of great help if such a section could be added in a future Pleco update
Thanks
cheers Eddy
