New option: don't reveal all on back of card #17

Open matthayes opened 3 years ago

matthayes commented 3 years ago

It would be useful to have an option to only reveal the current cloze being tested on the backside. For example, with this option, if a card has c1 through c5, you're viewing card 3 (i.e. testing c3), and you are revealing 1 before and 1 after, then:

What would be potential use cases? I can think of memorizing lines of a poem, but then you don’t want to show c4 on the front side.

This was a feature request from someone. But for myself I can think of at least one case where this is useful. Often there is a table from a grammar book showing conjugation of different verbs, adjectives, etc. that I want to test myself on, where each row is a different verb/adjective/etc. Now I could make a note for each row, but often I find it easier to make a single note for the whole table and generate a card per row via cloze on the row's cells. This feature would be useful because I could avoid revealing the other rows, which are not relevant to the current card.

But then why would you want to show c2 and c4 on the front?

matthayes commented 3 years ago

Maybe you need some context on the front side. But that doesn't mean you want to see everything else on the backside.

For my table example, I have data-cloze-show-before and data-cloze-show-after both set to none because I don't want any context from the other clozes. But I don't want to see the other clozed parts on the backside either.

Is this possible at all yet? This is my dream setup, but unfortunately I'm no coder. I am trying to setup cards to act like this: image I would love for the answers after each colon to be clozed, only questioning one at a time, and only revealing one at a time. I don't need context on either side, it's more of an alternative to having multiple basic cards. If this is possible I would love to learn how! Thanks for all your work on Cloze Anything Matt!
