I made a combination of a group with several subgroups holding each
a bunch of flashcards.<br>
There's several levels or layers :</p>
<p>ICONS<br>
--LEVEL 1 ---111 flashcards<br>
---112 flashcards<br>
---113 flashcards<br>
(etc)</p>
<p>So, in Studies, when I select the source, whatever level it be,
either on the ICONS level, or any sub-level, when I hit "begin
study", the app crashes...</p>
<p>Is this due to imbedded layers and sublayers?</p></div>peter Narkistag:mentalfaculty.tenderapp.com,2010-10-19:Comment/395248622016-03-31T14:52:50Z2016-03-31T14:52:51ZStudies IOS crashes when beginning study<div><p>ok, it messed up my layout, so I'm trying again</p>
<p>ICONS</p>
<p>--LEVEL 1</p>

<p>flashcards</p>
<p>---112</p>

<p>If it still happens, can you make a couple of screenshots to
show exactly how you are doing it?</p>

<p>we're dealing with PDFs.<br>
In Studies OS X all is ok : images are displayed correctly and I
can launch a study session going to the highest hierarchical group
("ICONS") [screenshots 1-3).</p>
<p>When importing in the latest iOS beta (Studies 1.0 (6)) the
individual notes are visible (thumbnails?) [screenshot 4]. But when
trying to open them to edit, the flashcards are empty [screenshot
5].</p>
<p>When trying to launch a study session when prompting as source
the highest hierarchical group ("ICONS") the app crashes [no
screenshot].<br>
When selecting the lowest highest hierarchical group (an individual
stack : 111, 112, etc..), the app yields a study session with empty
flashcards.</p></div>peter Narkistag:mentalfaculty.tenderapp.com,2010-10-19:Comment/395248622016-04-04T07:36:03Z2016-04-04T07:36:03ZStudies IOS crashes when beginning study<div><p>Yep, that sounds like I forgot to convert the PDFs. That’s
what happens unfortunately: iOS can’t display them as
images.</p>
<p>I will look into this. Thanks!</p>

that had this problem?</p>

I'd like to transfer those stacks to my iOS studies app.</p></div>peter Narkistag:mentalfaculty.tenderapp.com,2010-10-19:Comment/395248622016-04-05T08:34:44Z2016-04-05T08:34:44ZStudies IOS crashes when beginning study<div><p>I’m looking into it now. It is a major problem. Did this
ever work in Mental Case? I suspect it didn’t.</p>
<p>I may find a solution, but it will involve converting the PDFs
to PNG internally on the Mac.</p></div>drewmccormacktag:mentalfaculty.tenderapp.com,2010-10-19:Comment/395248622016-04-05T09:17:36Z2016-04-05T09:17:36ZStudies IOS crashes when beginning study<div><p>I have made changes to the Mac app that now converts PDFs to
PNGs. This allows PDFs to appear in the iOS apps.</p>
<p>Unfortunately, because this is a change in the Mac app, you will
not be able to test it until we release our next version of that,
which could be a couple of weeks. Apple have to review those
changes.</p>
<p>To get it to work for the notes you already have in the Mac, you
will have to load those notes. That is when the conversion happens.
You can load the notes by opening them to edit, or by starting a
slideshow with them. Once they are converted, they should sync to
iOS and work. New notes should automatically work.</p>
<p>I have updated the iOS app so that it at least does not crash
anymore. But at the moment, the PDFs still do not display. Only
when the Mac app is updated, will the PDFs show on iOS.</p>

fix the issues.</p></div>drewmccormacktag:mentalfaculty.tenderapp.com,2010-10-19:Comment/395248622016-04-05T11:06:18Z2016-04-05T11:06:19ZStudies IOS crashes when beginning study<div><p>ok, looking forward to it.<br>
When will the next iOS beta ship?</p></div>peter Narkistag:mentalfaculty.tenderapp.com,2010-10-19:Comment/395248622016-04-05T12:07:29Z2016-04-05T12:07:29ZStudies IOS crashes when beginning study<div><p>Probably a few days.</p></div>drewmccormacktag:mentalfaculty.tenderapp.com,2010-10-19:Comment/395248622016-04-07T15:19:41Z2016-04-07T15:19:42ZStudies IOS crashes when beginning study<div><p>just updated to latest beta.<br>
Tried to import same archive as before (exported from Studies as
studies archive).<br>
Still crashing when importing...</p>
<p>No go for me ...</p></div>Peter Narkistag:mentalfaculty.tenderapp.com,2010-10-19:Comment/395248622016-04-07T15:25:36Z2016-04-07T15:25:36ZStudies IOS crashes when beginning study<div><p>How are you importing? I just synced it across, and seemed to
work.</p>

<p>But now the archive is bigger than what I uploaded. Still just a
mere 48,5 Mo though.<br>
I'll try again with a partial import.</p></div>Peter Narkistag:mentalfaculty.tenderapp.com,2010-10-19:Comment/395248622016-04-08T08:09:18Z2016-04-08T08:09:19ZStudies IOS crashes when beginning study<div><p>OK, update :</p>
<p>I tried again with the original archive of 6 Mo I uploaded.<br>
First, Studies tells me "import successful", but the archive isn't
displayed in the library.<br>
When importing again from Fileapp, it works, but I'm having a
double archive. At least it works.<br>
Now, trying to do the same with the bigger archive I mentioned,
Studies still crashes.<br>
Should I upload it somewhere ?</p></div>Peter Narkistag:mentalfaculty.tenderapp.com,2010-10-19:Comment/395248622016-04-08T08:14:54Z2016-04-08T08:14:54ZStudies IOS crashes when beginning study<div><p>I think the first import did work, it just was taking time to
show up in the list.</p>
<p>I know why the big archive is failing. It is due to memory
usage. I will look into that.</p>

Will be in the next beta.<br>
In the meantime, I recommend just importing on the Mac, or
importing smaller archives.</p>
