5-sided Cards

5-sided Cards

Postby PolyglotAmi » Tue Aug 16, 2011 8:52 am

Hello Ernie -

I'm strongly considering buying Flashcards Deluxe. Just one question for you before I do so.

I majored in Romance Languages and what to use the Flashcards to brush up on vocabulary in four languages simultaneously. The cards should start with an English term and then be followed by the French, Spanish, Italian, and Portuguese equivalent. I downloaded the lite version and formatted a trial set in Google Docs but the cards only show the English term and the the French and Spanish equivalent.

Is this only because I'm using the lite version?

Thanks!

Hi. The lite version supports 5 sides also.
You are probably missing the column headers. If you exclude them, it assumes column 4 and 5 are categories.
At the top (usually row 1), put
Text 1 | Text 2 | Text 3 | Text 4 | Text 5 in each of the columns. (I used | as a new column delimiter in my example.)
Try that and you should see all 5 sides. (Basically, you need to tell the app what information is in each column.)

Parfait! Perfecto! Perfetto! Perfeito!

Many thanks for the fast reply. I'll be purchasing the app tonight.
