This add-on is a fork of Chinese Support 3 (Gustaf-C), the actively maintained continuation of the original Chinese Support lineage. It adds automatic Part of Speech and Radical field filling on top of the existing Hanzi/Pinyin/English/Bopomofo auto-fill. Released under the same license (GNU GPLv3) as required by that license.
Everything in this add-on except _jackie_patch.py, _jackie_lookup.py and
data/pos_radical/ is unmodified code from
Chinese Support 3 — see
those files for what's new.

untouched, to keep it minimal)config.json for the complete list of valid field names. For those migrating from an older version of the add-on, you will need to rename any definition fields to English, German or French, depending on what you want.The core feature of the add-on is the automatic field filling. To take advantage of this, you need to have an Anki note type with the appropriate fields (e.g., Hanzi, English, Pinyin, Sound, POS, Radical). See config.json for a list of valid field names.
If you don't already have such a note type, the easiest approach is to use one of the built-in models. Two types are installed automatically: Basic and Advanced. The only important difference is that the Advanced model shows more information.
To use the field-filling features:
Chinese (Basic) or Chinese (Advanced) as the note type汉字)Hanzi field (sentences will also work)By default POS and Radical text are filled in English. Set "language": "vi"
in the add-on config (Tools -> Add-ons -> Config) to get Vietnamese instead.
This is a hobby fork maintained on a best-effort basis. The upstream Chinese Support 3 project is itself labelled beta by its author ("it works, but I wouldn't trust it with my children") — please back up your collection before trying any Chinese-support add-on. The POS/Radical additions in this fork have been tested manually but not against an automated test suite.
