Please add a means to clear or edit the list of Flashcards

I can't find a way to clear the list of flashcards. Any new flashcards appear to simply be added to the past list of flashcards. This is hard to manage.

Selective deletion of flash cards would be very useful.

Wonderful work you are doing on this project!

Please watch the video.. it is based on dictionary history. there you can select what you want

Thank you for your quick response Bhante. I had already watched the video, and I understood that I can select what I want to use as flashcards. However the problem is that the list just grows and grows without a way to clear it (as far as I can tell). This is starting to prove a little ungainly. Please understand that this is not a high priority as I am just experimenting with Anki flashcards together with TPR. Again, thanks for the wholesome work you all are doing.

I'll look into it.. perhaps we can keep a separate list. Right now.. clearing the dictionary history will clear the flashcard list. But maybe I understand what you mean. The idea was just to make a way to export cards for a proper reader rather than making a space repetition app. There are packages that can handle that though with nearly zero code on my part. The idea is to take a section that you are studying.. and clear the dictionary. Then strategically click on the words to make a dictionary history. That in turn will fill up the flash card. Then what you do, is you export it to Remnote or Anki. Anki seems to be quite nice for this display. For Remnote, there is still some further editing to be done. There you can use a proper flashcard management system.

Thank you for this more detailed explanation Bhante. This helps. The fact that deleting individual (or all) entries from the Dictionary History clears the respective Flashcards does the trick. Ticket closed.

Great! I'm glad you figured it out.
