Importing and Markdown Import Options

Importing and Markdown Import Options

The Markdown Import Options seem to be missing some basic features that would be helpful.

Markdown Import Options (Sidebar Import -> Markdown)

  • One card per .md file
    • Choose files
      • There is no file filter for *.md or all files
  • Multiple card per .md file
    • Enter string delimiter
      • Why is there no option to store a string delimiter in settings to use as the default?
        • The user could overwrite the default in the text box if need be.
        • A user making a .md file for cards is likely going to use the same delimiter every time.
    • Choose files
      • There is no file filter for *.md or all files

The right click menu on a deck doesn't allow an import. Why not?

  • I can manage the deck from the right click menu, why can't I import cards into the deck from the right click menu? This would eliminate the step of having to select a deck on import, because the selected deck is the destination for the cards.

Selecting a deck after Import

  • The target list of decks shown as the last step of an import is ordered by most recently used (I think).
    • Why not just sort alphabetical?
    • Why isn't mouse scrolling allowed in that list? Mouse scrolling currently moves the window up and down not the list.
    • You can type the deck name but I don't always remember what my deck is called, so I end up looking to background sidebar under the decks section to see what deck is called so I can bring it up on import deck list...
