Is this OK?<div><p>Hi,</p>
<p>I'm just getting started with Mental Case Classroom Edition. I
love it!<br></p>
<p>To make my cards pretty, I decided to create images instead of
using text. I plan to have hundreds of cards and a lot of them will
also have audio. Is this going to be cause any memory-related
problems with the app? In technical terms, does the app load
everything into memory, or does it only load one card at a time
into memory?<br></p>
<p>I just wanted to know now before I invest dozens of hours into
creating the cards.</p>
<p>Cheers,<br>

about in another discussion (<a href=
"https://mentalfaculty.tenderapp.com/discussions/questions/33-too-big-library-file-size">https://mentalfaculty.tenderapp.com/discussions/questions/33-too-bi...</a>).</p>
<p>I'm OK with it for now as long as the app doesn't crash.</p>
<p>Cheers,<br>

The Mac app still does not handle very many images terribly well.
We have a new version coming (2.0) that will address this.<br>
The iOS apps do handle images well. They do not load all images
into memory.<br>
If you are just using the classroom version, and not syncing, no
problem.<br>
Kind regards,<br>

birds for my ornithology class and I'm using photos I took in the
lab. I'm dragging them in from iPhoto (which is kind of tricky on
my smallish screen). I lost over 50 notes when I hit "done" and
Mental Case crashed! Unfortunately I have found using trial and
error that I can't make more than a dozen or so at a time without
crashing.</p>
<p>It might be useful if Mental Case could resize the images when I
drop them in.</p></div>Lauratag:mentalfaculty.tenderapp.com,2010-10-19:Comment/56276702011-04-02T17:14:32Z2011-04-02T17:14:32ZAll of my cards have images. Is this OK?<div><p>Hi Laura,<br>
We are working on version 2 at the moment, and it handles images
much better.<br>
For now, make sure you save every few notes.<br>
You can also use the screenshot functionality to import the images.
This will result in a smaller image.<br>
Kind regards,<br>
