Using the
Easy Editor is a quick way to create cards. Please note that when setting font colors, sizes and styles, this will
override the settings set on the
iPod/iPhone itself. You may want to just use plain text. You should also use
Remove Formatting
button to changed styled text back to plain text.
Normally your card file will be parsed and spruced up a bit to try to make it look nice with minimal effort.
If you enter multiple lines, your answer will be placed into a list. If you enter a [: ] (colon space) the parts
before the colon will be bolded. So you can enter something like
Memory Item: Step 1
Memory Item2: Step 2
And it will turn out like this:
- Memory Item: Step 1
- Memory Item2: Step 2
You
can preview your cards to see how they will look before saving changes.
You can switch to the
Advanced Editor at any time to see how cards are formatted, or if you want to rapidly enter cards. It's pretty easy.
Cards are stored as simple text files. The format of the cards is a question line, followed by an answer line (or lines),
followed by a blank line to indicate a new question. See the example below..
This is question 1.
This is answer 1.
This is question 2.
This is answer 2.
This is part of answer 2.
This is question 3.
This is answer 3.
You can also use
<question></question>
and
<answer></answer>
tags to create questions on more than 1 line or answers that have blank
lines. When using
<question>
or
<answer> tags, the
formatting will not be spruced up by the parser, so you can make
it look exactly how you want it.
