Here are a few random comments, observations and things I would like to be able to do with Pleco:
- Report incorrect audio. Every once and a while, I encounter odd slip-ups in the recorded audio, and it would be nice if there were an easy way to report it (If it is in fact possible to update).
- Jump to the flashcard page. Sometimes when I look up a word in the dictionary that I happen to have a flashcard of, it occurs to me that I might want to check something about the flashcard, but there is no easy way to get there.
- A way to quarantine cards. Occasionally, I realize that I am just not remembering a certain card, and so I would like a way of putting it aside to study separately. What I have found is a setting called "exclude from all sessions," but there are two problems with this: First, it is not saved in a place that lets me rectify the problem, and second, I am not sure what exactly this excludes this flashcard from. In my case, I have several different profiles, and might want to exclude a card from the listening one, but not the reading one. Is that what exclude from all sessions does?
- A way to add a pause between two words when creating a custom flashcard for an expression where something is between two words, for example: 除了...以外. In this case, I happen to have this expression in the German HDD dictionary, and the entry includes a pause, but there are many other similar instances where I make a custom card and the automatic speech reads it as if it were one expression.
- Clipboard monitoring does not work reliably. Sometimes I will copy a word or phrase and Pleco simply doesn't open. When I open Pleco manually, and go to the clip reader page, the selected word is there, it's just that Pleco didn't open automatically like it should.
- Add a card limit function. I know this is a dead horse, but why not just add a max cards per session setting. I know it messes with the spaced repetition algorithm, but you could give a warning and let the users decide for themselves. The current method of reducing the number of cards by lowering the points per day does not yield predictable results. I know that some changes are planned for version 4.0, but this might not be so difficult as a quick fix while we're waiting
