The Tools submenu on the main menu provides the following options (assuming File : Level : Professional checked):
Commander
- Commander (Ctrl+Enter) - choose a SuperMemo command to execute
Workload
- Workload (Ctrl+W) - the daily and the monthly calendar of repetitions.
Sleep Chart
- Sleep Chart (F12) - record of repetition and/or sleep blocks that will help you see your timing pattern in learning and sleeping
Plan
- Plan (Ctrl+P) - a schedule manager that will help you plan your time by adjusting proportions of time you spend on individual activities
Mercy
- Mercy (Shift+Alt+M) - a dialog box that makes it possible to reschedule repetitions (e.g. before or after a holiday break). Use Mercy only if you want to redistribute the outstanding material in a selected period of time. If you cannot cope with material overload, you should rather use Postpone
Tasklist
Statistics
- Statistics
- Statistics - a window with the main statistics of the learning process
- Element data - a window with the statistics related to the current element. This window also displays the repetition statistics after a repetition
- Analysis (Shift+Alt+A) - a dialog box with various statistics related to the learning process and the SuperMemo Algorithm
- Simulation - a dialog box that makes it possible to simulate the course of learning over many years using real data collected during repetitions (see: Theoretical aspects of SuperMemo). Please note that for a low value of the forgetting index, the simulation procedure may be inaccurate (see: FAQ)
- Report - generate a text file with statistics displayed in the Statistics window
- Reset parameters
- Forgetting index record - reset the record of repetition grades used in computing the measured forgetting index
- Forgetting index vs priority record - reset the record of the forgetting index measured for different priority categories (as visible in Tools : Statistics : Analysis : Graphs : Forgetting Index vs. Priority)
- First grade vs A-Factor record - reset the record of the correlation between between first grades and A-Factors
- Average response time - reset the record of the average time it takes to respond to questions in your collection
- Repetition history - delete the history of repetitions without affecting the learning process
- Optimization matrices - reset the optimization matrices used in the learning process (RF, OF, repetition cases, forgetting curves, etc.)
Memory
- Memory
- 4D Graphs (F7) - visual presentation of memory functions, their approximations as used by Algorithm SM-17, and options for resetting and re-computing memory data on the basis of repetition histories
- Memory status (F2) - show changes to memory status over time
- Compute memory stability matrix - compute the parameters of the memory stability function for the individual
- Collect difficulty data - collect difficulty, starting stability, and A-Factors for all items
- Save recall matrix - save parameters of the Recall[] matrix used by Algorithm SM-17 (parameters A and B of the forgetting curve approximation and repetition cases used to compute each entry)
Neural analysis
- Neural analysis - build a neural queue and show how activation spreads in the network
Randomize
Random test
- Random test - run random repetitions on various subsets of the current collection (random repetitions do not count in the learning process). The following tests can be found on the Random test submenu:
Random review
Options
- Options (Alt+O) - open a tabbed dialog box with options such as default interface font, default forgetting index, path to files on the CD-ROM, translation language, etc.
