Nice! I think this officially makes my Lesson Filter script defunct. I thought about eventually updating it to work on the lesson picker page, but happy to let it retire at this point. Really like your UI as well.
Thanks! I was actually hoping you would update your script, unfortunately by the time I started WaniKani it had already stopped working. Clicking items one by one was starting to drive me insane so I had to make this. The only UI I added was the 3 inputs so it’s hard to really go wrong there
Yeah I’ve just been super busy with other things unfortunately. It’s a shame since the lesson picker makes it fairly easy to set the selected lessons, so it probably wouldn’t take much to reimplement the script.
Really happy to see someone made this. There are two things I’d like to see added to it, and if I have the time I’ll probably try and add them myself and share what was done.
First, I’d like there to be a way to tell it to select n items from each item type randomly instead of it being the first n items (something like a checkbox/toggle to say “select at random”).
Second, I’d like there to be a way to select all items of a certain item type. If the items are split across levels, it can be a pain to hit “Select All” for every level’s radical/kanji/vocab section; having a way to quickly say give me all items of [type] from all available levels would be nice (initially I’m thinking that entering in a negative number could do this, like automatically select all available of that type, but I’m not sure this is the most intuitive user experience).
This is already possible if you enter any number >= to the number of items of that type, so you can just enter a large number to select all, this is slightly more intuitive than your suggestion. I could add buttons to do this but will have to consider how to design the UI, I quite like how clean it is at the moment.
Interesting idea, should be pretty simple to do, I’ll implement it tomorrow although personally I’ll probably never use it
Oh, glad that it’s possible. I would have been worried that the user wouldn’t be able to tell how many of each type they have, but yeah they can just enter a sufficiently large number without counting like you say. Hopefully if they do this it automatically sets itself to the correct number?
It’s mostly to get back a little bit of what seanblue’s script had with the ability to shuffle the items. Instead of shuffling after filtering, we just select at random instead and this achieves a similar (but ultimately different) effect.
Actually, perhaps the random selection idea isn’t a very good one. I just remembered that there is lesson order native to the items and sometimes the items will make use of ones you’re supposed to learn before it. So maybe scratch that random selection xD
Ah yea, I just looked at seanblue’s script now and was going to suggest that you could possibly achieve the same effect with Reorder Omega but then saw your post on the Reorder Omega forum . Although even if you achieved shuffling after filtering you could still run into the same issue of getting an item that relies on another first. Will scrap the random selection then Will fix the large number issue now then quickly should be like a one line change.
Added “All” types input it prioritizes radicals > kanji > vocabulary. This prioritization best fits my workflow if you would like it to work another way let me know, perhaps I’ll add some kind of setting to change the priority.
