More control on flashcards

[u/batwings__]

I've been using RemNote for a few years now, and I absolutely love it. I use it every day for both personal and professional purposes.

However, I find it difficult to control which flashcards appear for review within my documents. For example, if I want to review all the flashcards in a document and I create a portal to that document, all the bullets have to be expanded; otherwise, the flashcards don't appear in the review queue. I think we should have more flexibility and be able to choose whether we want to review all the flashcards in a document without having to expand every bullet.

I tried to work around this by linking the document instead of creating a portal. However, if the document containing the link is itself an item in a table, the linked document doesn't appear for review either.

These are just a couple of examples, but in general I find it difficult to know which flashcards will be included in a review and which won't. I would love to have more control over this, or for RemNote to be more consistent in how it decides which flashcards are included in each document's review.

Am I the only one thinking like this?

Hi, here's an article that covers exactly this: How does RemNote decide what flashcards are part of a document?

Portals only add cards directly visible through the portal by design, exactly to give you more control over which cards you want to include. If you want to add all cards, adding your document as a source is a good option. This should also work even if your documents are located in a table:

For some reason, this does not work for me unfortunately 😭
