Is that normal behavior? Whenever I activate/deactivate it on one preset and hit save, when I check another it is also changed there. Some info about my Anki: Windows 11 Anki Version ⁨23.10 (51a10f09)⁩ Python 3.9.15 Qt 6.5.3 PyQt 6.5.3

[image] FSRS as a deck group setting vs collection setting Help I am confused. FSRS is a deck group setting, yet it seems to run collection-wise. I would like to enable FSRS only for selected deck group settings such as Default and leave the other ‘specialized’…

I see… then it is weird in my opinion to activate it under the preset settings, if it applies to the whole collection.

It makes it easier to find, and easier to see which options change when enabled/disabled.

@dae I apologize I’m late to the game in testing this (working 70 hour weeks keeps me busy…) It appears I’m not the only one that has had this confusion and others, including @guillempalausalva and other advanced users have been confused so I can only imagine what it does for new users I’d perso…

[image] AnKingMed: It’s confusing to put that button in the option presets menu, but make it apply across all presets. If it were global id expect it to be in preferences perhaps next to where the v3 scheduled was enabled. Yes, I’d expect exactly that.

[image] AnKingMed: for the review sort order, you could just make it so that each first level deck sets the precedent for all lower decks I think this could further obfuscate things, as it would be completely unprecedented. So far, all settings are either taken from the selected deck or a car…

I like the idea of an icon in that it would not take up much space / clutter the interface too much, but I’m not sure the meaning would be immediately apparent to people. Another option would be to move the global settings into their own subsection, but that would make the ‘ignore review limit’ opti…

Count me in as someone who was confused by this initially when attempting to try out FSRS on just one deck. Adding an indicator and/or altering the label sounds like a nice improvement. I would honestly vote for something even more obvious, at the risk of being more verbose, e.g. applies to all dec…

Re: FSRS being a global option, making it per-preset would add a bunch of extra complexity to the code - things like moving cards between FSRS and SM2 decks, and presenting cards when they’re a mix of SM-2 and FSRS. I’m afraid this is unlikely to change, so you’ll need to use a separate profile if y…

[image] Rumo: Maybe global options could be styled differently, or have a :globe_with_meridians: icon which says “global setting” on hover. I like this idea. I agree with dae that its meaning may not be immediately apparent to the users. But, Rumo has already provided the solution; the icon c…

I’ve noticed many users fail to discover tooltips, so if it requires a tooltip to discern, I think the meaning will be lost of a fair few people. Re @glutanimate ’s comment, how about " (all decks)"?

Activating FSRS on one preset activates it on all presets?
