I'm using Anki to review for the Kanken next month. I have run into some issues and would like to know if there are features that already solve them or ways to get around them. A lot of it revolves around having a lot of information simultaneously in multiple categories.
1. Is there any way to show tags in the review? I tag all my cards by jouyou level and also by parts of speech and would like to see them during reviews. I realize I can copy and paste them into a new custom field, but it would be much easier not to have to.
2. Can I rearrange the order fields are shown on the cards?
3. Reviewing by tags. Can I review a set of tags with all the others turned off, then turn that set off and review the others? For example, say I want to review jouyou 1 & 2 compounds, but seperately. Can I turn all but 1, review, turn off 1, and then review 2? Does that make sense?
4. Is there a way to copy/paste cards between decks? Is there a way to simply combine decks? If I can only combine, is there a way I can save several copies of a deck, delete the uneeded cards, and then combine the wanted cards with another deck?
A couple problems:
1. When I sort cards, they do not always sort perfectly by the desired method. For example, if I sort by Expression, I want to see all the kanji compounds grouped at the top or bottom of the list. Now, they are scattered around.
2. (Maybe directly related), I changed my model after I had already input some cards. I've tried to change the model to apply to all the cards in the deck, but some will not display the added fields. I've tried to change the model with both forms of cards but it will not apply throughout the deck.
Thanks for your help. I love Anki!
