Interesting features, but SuperMemo is fugly. Anki really needs some incremental reading support.

@ma1achite Yes, the design is not its strongest point, but at the same time, Anki is very unlikely to get incremental reading or the more powerful features of SM any time soon.

Hi. I've been using supermemo for some 3 weeks now, and I'm starting to appreciate my everyday sessions with the program. One question, though. Say I need to learn some 1000 items in 3 months (French words in this case). Is there any way to set time limit to do it? I had a look at the website, but can't find the answer. Help if you can. Thanx

@qqmbr Hi, unfortunately there is no way to set a time limit. However you could add more of the items to your pending queue per day. If you put in the extra time, you will probably learn faster. I think 1000 items is do-able actually with at least one hour of learning with the program per day.

Hey,

Thanks for putting this up. I really feel like SuperMemo could use more tutorials like this, since all the startup materials on the website are pretty dense.

It'd be really cool if you could make a video about tree organization, perhaps showing what your personal tree looks like. That would be very helpful.

Quick ?

When generating items with alt+x then alt+z, I end up with cloze-deletion items embedded under topics. Should I pull the items out to make them easier to access?

@JonnyAwesome >>>When generating items with alt+x then alt+z, I end up with cloze-deletion items embedded under topics.

Keep them there. That is how the software is designed. It is easier to manage this way in large collections! I will post a video on tree organization soon. :D

Alt+F10 -> Type -> Item

(Answer my own question)

[ardorlan]

I had a article I used Alt+X on a sentence, this create an Item, the Item did not have a Question/Answer. So, I applied the "item" template, I then edited the item to make it a question/answer but now, when it shows up in super memo during my learning process it does not hide the Answer, and does not ask me for a grade.

@blueiceJz Cool, that sounds great!
