Search menu

Contents


The Search submenu on the main menu is available at the Middle or higher levels. It can be used in searching your collection for texts, pictures, fonts, etc. Many of those searches are done with the help of registries. Those menu items that provide access to a registry, display the number of members in the registry in parentheses (for example, the Search menu in the picture (click to enlarge) shows that the exemplary collection stores 1,115,375 texts with a lexicon of 1,299,913 distinct words - note that the number is so high because proper names, different numbers, etc., are all stored in the lexicon as separate words):

Image names are displayed on the left. Most of pictures are stored in the JP(E)G format. Other formats show in different colors: GIFs in orange, PNGs in yellow and BMPs in lime. Pictures with checkmarks can be extracted into a picture subset (e.g. to illustrate a chosen element). The currently displayed picture is one of citric acid cycle (Krebs cycle, TCA cycle). Individual elements in SuperMemo can focus on small portions of this large picture. The list of elements using a given picture can be displayed in the bottom-right panel by clicking List at the very bottom of the registry window.
