Show Add-on Note when Anki-note is opened in Editor

Open offlinejaguar opened this issue 4 years ago • 1 comments

Hello, First of all thank you immensely for the add-on it is incredible and has changed fundamentally the way I learn

I was wondering if there is a way to see the add-on note the anki note was made from when you see the anki note in the editor. A nice addition to this would be to automatically show the add-on note when you edit a anki note with "useInEdit": true,. This way you can easily see the information from where the anki note was made.

Another thing I would like to ask is if there is a shortcut for "take snapshot", and if not, if this can be implemented? (I don't know if I should create a separate issue for this)

Thank you again for this wonderful add-on!!

Hi,

I was wondering if there is a way to see the add-on note the anki note was made from when you see the anki note in the editor. A nice addition to this would be to automatically show the add-on note when you edit a anki note with "useInEdit": true,. This way you can easily see the information from where the anki note was made.

I can see why that could be useful. Though I think auto-opening PDFs when using the edit window might be annoying in some cases, because opening a potentially large PDF everytime I just want to make a quick edit might slow things down. Some ideas might be to either have this as an optional config setting (not a fan of that option, as there is already lots of stuff hidden in the config) or to maybe have a special note / button displayed on opening the edit window, that will open the linked PDF+ page on click.

Another thing I would like to ask is if there is a shortcut for "take snapshot", and if not, if this can be implemented? (I don't know if I should create a separate issue for this)

You are not the first to request that, I think that will be included with one of the next updates.
