Anki add-on: Transparent Text

Transparent Text is a tiny Anki editor add-on that lets you hide text inside your notes without deleting it. Selected text becomes invisible using CSS while remaining fully searchable, editable, and synchronized across your devices. Perfect for storing mnemonics , hidden hints, helper words, personal reminders, keywords, or search terms directly inside your notes while keeping your cards clean and distraction-free. I created this add-on because I often wanted to keep extra information inside my notes without displaying it during review. Rather than creating extra fields or deleting helpful text, I wanted a simple one-click solution. Transparent Text provides a simple one-click solution without adding extra fields or changing your card templates. Because it uses transparent text instead of fixed colours, your hidden notes remain invisible in both Light and Dark mode without any extra work. Preview Hide selected text with a single click The hidden text remains searchable and editable Features Hide selected text instantly One-click toggle Keyboard shortcut support Keeps hidden text searchable in the Anki Browser Works with synchronization like normal note content No extra fields required No settings or configuration Lightweight and minimalistic Light & Dark mode compatible Perfect for Hidden mnemonics Personal reminders Hidden keywords Search tags inside notes Vocabulary hints Study notes Clean card layouts How it works Select text inside the Anki editor. Click the eye-off button or press the shortcut. The text becomes invisible while remaining inside the note. Press the button again to restore visibility. The add-on simply wraps the selected text with color: transparent; . Nothing is deleted, encrypted, or moved elsewhere—it remains part of your note and continues to behave like normal text. If you discover a better workflow or have suggestions for improvements, I'd love to hear them.
