Flashcards Deluxe Forum

Thanks Ernie.

You know, I sort of like your second (more involved) option as I can set that once per deck and be done with it. I think that's better than having to add HTML to each and every card I create.

And, if nothing else, your second option sort of forces me to learn more about the advanced features. Win-win!

Hi. Try using font html tag in your text

Example:|<font face="courier">Some text on line 2</font>


Another option, though probably a little goofy in your case, would be to exclude the "Example:" in your side 3, and add a side 4 that only has "Example:" for every card. You can then use the Card Layout functionality to put Text 4 + Text 3 on the card's side 3 when studying. Since they are different sides, you can specify different font for each original side of the card, side 3 = courier and side 4 = standard, and when it puts it together you'll get two different fonts on the same side. I know the terminology can be very confusing, because "side 3" can mean either the original pre-mapped side 3 (Text 3) or the post-mapped side 3 that is shown. Sorry. Anway, the first option above is more straightforward.

New user. Great app! I'm working my way through its features and am probably getting on the edge of abusing it already.

Is there a way to have, within a single side of a card, a second font displayed?

I'm studying for a technical certification (VCAP-DCA), have created flash cards containing computer command line commands and have my card sides structured as follows:

1. The question
2. The canonical command line answer
3. An actual command line example

Particularly on the third side I'd love to be able to have the word "Example:" on the first line in a non-mono-spaced font and the example itself on the subsequent line (in the mono-spaced Courier font).

For now, I'm using the per-side font control and it's OK, but...

In any event, thanks Ernie, for a wicked cool study aide!
