0.8.0 sandbox build out
April 30th, 2008
I’ve put out a new sandbox build that contains the new Flashcard notes functionality. Now you can attach text, images and sounds to your flashcards. Keep in mind that this is not beta, or alpha software. It’s just a snapshot of stuff I’m working on. That said, I’d like your comments on whether you think this new notes feature is useful.
Known limitations:
- Can only play mp3 sound files.
- Cannot stop sound file once you’ve started to play it. So don’t attach big sound files!
- No shortcut key to play attached sound.
- Attachments do not get backed-up.
Please make sure that you keep a back up of your existing word lists if you try this build, as it will make modifications to your user database.

Looks good. any chance you could create an export function for some sort of report using smart filter? I ‘d love to be able to make printouts with the characters I often forget.

Hi Chris,
First of all thanks a lot for this great program. I use it a lot and it really helps me with my mandarin.
Just came accross a little prog. called Pablo (http://ehaton.blogspot.com/2007/02/learning-chinese-pablo-my-personal.html)
that is kind of similar to zdt although it has much less features.
The UI is kinda good though, especially the handwriting recognition, and I was wondering if maybe you could later include that into Zdt ?
Thanks again
ps: my pc is getting old and is dreaming of a c++ version …

It sounds good. It will be interesting a feature to export flashcards (all or a selection) to a set of images (2 per flashcard, one with the character, one with the pinyin and definition), each pair could have the same prefix as filename to be recalled in order, first the character, then the pinyin. This images could be transfered then to ipods, phones or mp4 devices. Regards!

Hey, when can we expect an update to this? I’d really like to use these new features.
