The User Sets Window

The user sets window is a central location for controlling user sets and their use in interval study. It allows you to modify the properties for multiple sets at once, view and change interval study statistics, add and delete user sets, sort them, and remove duplicates.

Summary of Window Features: The list to the left in this window shows all the current user sets for the open user. It shows various statistics for each of them. You may open these user sets by double-clicking on the set or clicking the "Open Set" button below. You may use "Add Set" button to add a single set or "Add Folder" to add all the sets in a folder (make sure the folder contains only Flashcard Wizard sets as a precaution). Click on a set or sets in the list and then "Delete Set" or "Set Properties" to do so for each of the sets selected. Click on the "Sort" button to sort the sets in the list by alphabetical order. If your user file is damaged or you have damaged or missing files in your user set folder, you can use the "Rescan Folder" to find the sets again, but this will remove some of the statistics saved in the user file. Clicking on the "Set Status" button will open a new window which allows you to change the interval study stages, days until review, and reset interval study statistics. Remove Duplicates will remove duplicates from multiple user files.

Each of the features of the window are described in more detail below:

• The list to the left is a comprehensive list of user sets included in the user file. To the right you may view statistics about them, such as the number of entries in each set, whether they are currently included for interval study, and whether they have their own TTF (time-to-forget) or interval study schedule. Double-clicking on the name of a set will open it, while double-clicking on the TTF column will assign a TTF schedule for only that user set. Finally, double-clicking on the "include" column will change whether that set is included in interval study.
• The "Open Set" button will open the selected set.
• The "Delete Set" button will open the selected set or sets.
• The "Sort" button will sort the list of user sets.
• The "Add Folder" button will try to add all files in a folder as sets to the user. Make sure the files in the folder are only Flashcard Wizard files.
• The "Rescan Folder" button should only be used if there are damaged or missing files. This will rescan the folder and rewrite a portion of the user file. Some statistics which are saved in the user file, such as whether they are included in interval study or not, will be lost.
• The "Remove Duplicates" button will remove duplicates from the user sets. You will be prompted to choose a field to search for duplicates in.
• The "Get Set Status" button will open a new window where one can view and modify the interval study stages and statistics for the entries in the set. Entries can be moved forward or back in their TTF schedule, all TTF statistics can be reset, and the day they should be reviewed also changed. These are all accessable from a pop-up menu to the right in the window. To get a better overview of interval study statistics, try using the "User Log & Statistics" option in the "User" menu.
