### Reversing Facet Order in Slideshows

In earlier versions of Mental Case, you could reverse the order of facets in a note when studying in a slideshow. This is still possible, but the way you achieve it is somewhat different.

Because Mental Case now allows more than two facets on a note, it doesn’t make much sense to simply reverse the facets. Instead, you can indicate whether a particular facet can be used as a prompt or question. You do this when you flip a facet over to configure it.

When configuring a slideshow, you can choose which facet to use as the prompt. This can be a random choice between the candidate facets, or you can specify the facet according to its position. The same applies to the response facet(s).

> ##### To view a note in a slideshow with facets out of order:

> 1. In the note editor, configure the facets that can be used as a prompt — i.e. can appear first in a slideshow — with the Facet can be used as a prompt or question option checked.
> 2. Start a new slideshow, and in the settings, uncheck the Include only notes due for study. (If you don’t do this, you can’t set the prompt yourself, because the learning schedule will determine which facet is the prompt.)
> 3. Choose the facet location to use as the prompt from the Prompt popup button.
