Description

I'm aware that this add-on is not working for Anki 2.1.49. Unfortunately Anki 2.1.49 does not run on my system,yet (Ubuntu). As long as I cannot run Anki, I'll not be able to fix the bug. Feel free to help me out, fix it and send me the new code (Github).

General

This add-on adds a bar on the right side of the Add-Cards-Dialog, inside the Browser and the edit cards dialog. (see picture) You can use it for quick-selecting tags without the need to write them down everytime you need them.

Here's a short video that show's its functionality Anki TagSelector V2 introduction on youtube

Feel free to leave a comment/suggestion/bug report under the Youtube video. I appreciate every feedback!

Known bugs and workaround

  • "gShareDataAmongDecks" should be called gShareDataAmongProfiles. There is no way of using different tags for different decks.

  • TagSelector cannot be enabled inside the browser anymore.<br> Workaround: "the tag selector can be used easily for editing already existing cards if you make a filtered deck, toggle off the rescheduling option and start 'reviewing' the deck. This way you can see the cards and edit them WITH the tag selector; while you're not changing any statistics or scheduling of the cards." (props @ Amber Schelfhout )

History

Features in version 24.06.3.1

  • Fixed, so it would work in this Anki version
  • Re-introduced TagSelector for the Notes browser and note edit dialog

Github source for version 24.06.3.1

Features in V2.4:

  • Fixed bug: In Anki 2.1.46, Anki showed an error message at the start of Anki.
  • Removed Feature: TagSelector cannot be enabled inside the browser anymore. Reason (technical): Anki removed the _onRowChanged function of Browser, which I used to reload the TagSelector. This can be fixed, but I don't have the time to do so. Feel free to fix this issue properly and send me the code :)

Features in V2.3:

  • Fixed bug: Closing "Add Cards" dialog with Escape leaves a broken window open
  • Fixed bug: TagSelector gets gradually bigger with each opening of "Add Cards" dialog.
  • New Feature: clearing saved data is possible through menu: Tools -> Tag Selector -> clear saved data

Features in V2.2:

  • Tooltips will be shown, if the cursor is over a tag field
