ALL bookmarks are gone.
The only thing I had done before opening the reader was to look at some words, and look in History. I DID clear the OCR history. Also, not sure why there was any thing IN the history, since I had cleared it in version 8, and haven't used OCR since then... I also tried to clear flashcard history, but actually just to see what you ended up with for a message 8) I think the new message is very clear and informative.
JimmyTheSaint said:When I click on a flashcard to edit, the menu button shows six options, but clicking on any of them has no effect. Of course, switching to another app and then back to Pleco will give me the "home" behavior. As mentioned before, I'd find the "home"function useful in every possible context, including aborting from deep within settings or flashcards.
mfcb said:hmmm, maybe i remember it wrong, but i think before beta 9 i did not need to answer an "encoding" dialog, when opening a file in reader... is that new, or is my memory faulty...
stephanhodges said:Still have flashcards. Also, the previously OPEN document in the reader was still in the reader. That was the only name in the "Recent Files" tab. I had 4 other documents in that tab before the update.
stephanhodges said:Does the reader automatically generate a "furthest read" bookmark? If so, does it also keep a separate "current position" mark? It would be nice to be able to see these in the bookmark viewer. I'd also like to request an enhancement to see the character position of the bookmark in the bookmark viewer. That helps if I'm using some other reader, or on my laptop.
stephanhodges said:Of course, still hoping to eventually see an integrated export/import of all settings, including bookmarks, etc.

stephanhodges said:No, it didn't remember the position I was at. It started at the beginning. Of course, there's no visible "cursor" and it's a large screen... But, it should have been on a different page, so this time I can definitely say it didn't "remember".
aiwen said:- Full-text search: According to the manual, there should be a button to toggle between normal search and full-text search mode: "You can insert or remove this character automatically by tapping on the "Full" button, the rightmost button in the row of buttons below the Search Field." But I cannot find such a button..
aiwen said:- How can I easily insert new entries into the user dictionary? So far, I just found the following way: 1. Clear the search field. 2. Switch to the User dictionary. 3. Select any entry and go to it's definiton. 4. Press on "Edit entry". 5. There I can enter a new one. Is there a simpler way to do this?
aiwen said:- Import flash card file: By default, the definitions come from a dictionary, even if I deselect this in the Pleco settings. I would like to use the entries in the flash cards. If there would be a batch command that can do this, this would also be helpful. (I tried the following file: http://hskflashcards.com/d/npcr_2_plecodict2.xml)
aiwen said:- Reader (may be this is a question of personal preference): If I have selected a text passage (with pop-up visible) and I would like to switch to another passage, I have to click twice: First to go back to the reader (without pop-up) and select the new text passage (the pop-up apperas again). Would it be possible to do this in only one click? Even the arrows do not help: This will only jump to the next character or word. The same applies also to texts in dictionary definitions or examples.
aiwen said:Good news for those who use Pleco on a rooted Sony PRS-T1 reader: I found the location where to put custom font files:
/mnt/sdcard/Sony_Reader/data/data/com.pleco.chinesesystem/files/fonts/chinese/
With the font from my Windows Mobile phone (ZYSong.ttf), Pleco looks now really great!
stephanhodges said:1. You can select all three characters from the dictionary entry but CANNOT copy all three to clipboard. It only copies first two.
This is way harder than it was for the Palm. I have the same frustrations from the reader app.

MintPastille said:Using flashcards, when doing self-graded reviews showing audio, you can only re-listen to the audio three times (by pressing the button in the corner). After that, a dialog box pops up saying that you need to change the review mode so that audio is the prompt, which already is the case. Now, this is probably also a bug on my part since I shouldn't have to listen to the word more than three times, but still!
Alexis said:Minor Bug:
I have the NWP dictionary set as the first dictionary for English-Chinese.
I search for the word "reaction". The dictionary sits at the word "reactionary" in the NWP, instead of switching to my next dictionary which has the word "reaction".
ausgang said:When I long-press the "+" Button to add the entry as a flashcard the pop-up for category-selection appears.
Problem: I can't select sub-categories, it's only possible to add the entry to the main-categories. How to?
