Anki add-on: Persistent Editor

This add-on will make the editor window for review persistent. On the front of the card, the fields will be obscured, so the answer to the flashcard cannot be read. On the back of the card, all fields will be revealed. Important shortcuts e : will trigger the editor window. This is identical to the standard Anki behavior. Clicking e again will bring focus to the editor window. c : will flip the card, going to the front, if you're on the back and vice versa. Before creating this add-on, I typically used the editor shortcut to go back to the front of the card. This is no longer possible, the editor shortcut won't change which side of the card is displayed. For this reason, you can use this shortcut to have the old functionality. This shortcut is configurable in the add-on settings under "Tools > Add-ons > Persistent Editor > Config". Obscuring mode vs Presentation mode If you do not like the obscuring behavior, you can use "presentation mode". This makes the Editor work the same for the back and front side. Under "Tools > Add-ons > Persistent Editor > Config" you can put the editor window into presentation mode by default. There is a shortcut to easily switch between those modes, which defaults to Ctrl+P . Updates * v0.1.0 .

Uses different strategy to obscure field, using visibility: hidden Support If you like my add-ons, you can consider supporting me. My add-ons will always be freely available for everybody, but what I can offer you is my sincere thanks, and first-hand technical support, if you have any questions/issues with my add-ons. At the same time it allows me to put more time and focus into developing these and making them as powerful and user-friendly as they are.
