### Stacks of Notes

You can use stacks to group together mental notes in categories, like playlists in iTunes. Stacks are shown on the left side of the main window in the source list. Selecting a stack causes the notes it contains to be displayed in the note browser on the right.

There are three types of stack: special built-in stacks like All Notes and Due for Study, user-created stacks, and smart stacks. User-created stacks are containers for mental notes, and they also determine how the notes are scheduled for study. Smart Cases do not own the notes they contain; they are more like saved searches, like Smart Folders in Finder.

The built-in stacks include:

Stack | Contains...
--- | ---
All Notes | All of the notes in the library.
Loose Notes | Notes that do not belong to any user-created stack.
Due for Study | The notes that are due to be studied.
Flagged | All notes that have been flagged.
Trash | Notes that have been moved to the Trash.
Recently Studied | Notes studied in the last two days.
Recently Incorrect | Notes that were marked wrong when last studied.
Last Import | The notes that were in the last import
Recently Added | Notes added in the last two days.

In addition to stacks, there are also cases. Cases allow you to group together stacks and other cases, and can be nested as deeply as you like. They are very similar to folders in the Finder.
