Description

***Known errors with NDFS and Anki v2.1.46+. Will update in the near future (no time currently)*** Eliminates everything unnecessary during reviews giving you maximum usable screen space and a clean, adjustable interface that supports touch. TL;DR: On Windows/Linux: Press F11 for fullscreen On Mac: Press green maximize button (upper left corner) for fullscreen Features: - Hides all menu bars including bottom bar ("More, Edit") and both top bars ("File, Edit..." and "Decks, Add..."). - Superimposes answer buttons over cards, with adjustable opacity. Becomes opaque on mouse-over. - Draggable answer buttons that support touch. Enable with right click menu option or hotkey. - No Distractions Answer Bar: Minimalistic reimagining of answer bar with animated answer confirmations - No Distractions works in resizable windows as well. Can set to always be on top. - For Windows: This is a menu option toggle | For Macs: This is the default behavior. To enter full screen mode, maximize the window - Hides mouse cursor if idle. - Auto-toggle No Distractions mode when starting/leaving reviews - Highly customizable: Common settings can be changed in menu options (View -> ND Full Screen). Further settings, including ND Answer Bar appearance can be changed through menu options. Detailed descriptions are within. - Highly compatible: Supports wide range of addons (tested list in notes section below), Win/Mac/Linux, hardware/software rendering modes and legacy clients (tested on 2.1.9 and higher). - Plays well with my other add-on, Anki Zoom (make use of that extra space!) Is NOT compatible with Zoom 2.1. In Action: With No Distractions Answer Bar Enabled: Drag Functionality (with King of Buttons Addon): Notes: - Mac and Windows/Linux menu options differ slightly; Entering full screen mode on Mac is done via maximizing the window instead of a menu toggle - Automatically switches colors for normal/night mode with support for Night Mode Addon - In Fullscreen mode, moving the mouse to the bottom of the screen will unhide answer buttons (if hidden). - Supports most card layouts; cards are dynamically padded so that superimposed answer buttons do not obscure the bottom of cards when scrolled down - No Distractions Answer Bar uses a custom layout and may not play well with other addons. Feel free to report issues, and I will try my best, but widespread compatibility may not be possible. - Tested compatibility with v2.1.9, v2.1.13, v2.1.15, v2.1.20, v2.1.22, v2.1.28, v2.1.29, Large and Colorful Buttons, Night Mode, Anki Zoom, Speed Focus Mode, Anki Habitica, Fill the blanks, Edit field during review, Directly Review, King of Buttons, Dancing Baloney, Progress Bar, Refocus card, Advanced Review Bottom Bar - Please report issues here: Github.
