Image Occlusion : Do not bury sibling cards (only for image occlusion)

[qubist-pixel]

Is your feature request related to a problem? Please describe.

• When creating multiple cloze cards from same image, related cards get buried (if enabled in option).
• I create multiple Image Occlusion cards that are not related so I want to study them on the same day.
• But I do want to bury siblings of normal cloze cards.
• The addon does not bury cards from same image either.

Describe the solution you’d like

• An option “Do not bury related cards” only for image occlusion note type

Describe alternatives you’ve considered

• Use the image occlusion enhanced addon

Use different presets. Turn on the burying option in one, and turn it off in the other.

But it would require different decks.

I don’t think that’s always an solution though. It might not be optimal to divide your content like this; people create decks on the basis of type of content and not type of note.

Having said that, @qubist-pixel, your solution will only work for a particular note type and people will soon want this for other note types too (for example, cloze). A better solution, in my opinion, is what I describe in another thread:

@sorata

I think now it is making less sense to me that burying is attached to presets rather than note types. This feels more of a workaround as there’s nothing inherent in the essence of bunch of decks that makes you turn to a feature like burying. There can be a correlation, if you are building deck-presets in that way, that’s why it works for most people. Yet it’s the note types and the siblings that they might have which actually makes you want to use the burying feature. But I agree the current way might just be less organic (once again, proposing no change here).

(I have divided my material according to chapters/subjects and thus IO cards + clozes stay together with basic+reverse note types, becomes illogical to divide these note types into different decks/presets just for burying)

I also think the upcoming feature, “prevent sibling overlap” should be in the note types rather than the presets. See here: Native implementation of Load Balance - #57 by sorata (dang, I wrote some wrong sentences there but I can’t seem to be able to edit the comment)

Perhaps Subdeck would be better.

It’s worth putting this in a separate topic suggestions.

I did not understand how this would help to review all sibling cards on same day without changing the option for other note types.

I think this issue is more relevant to IO cards because many people use it to remember related but different facts.

I would like to point to github issue. Those migrating from the addon will find the current behavior significantly different, to the point that many (like me) cannot switch.
