Automatically rates typed answers as hard, good, or easy based on configurable response-time thresholds, with options for handling mismatches, multiple answer fields, and confirming ratings.
Highlights browser search matches within notes, including field code, tags, regex and overlapping matches, with auto-scroll, scrollbar indicators and customizable settings.
Extends Anki's editor duplicate checking so fields marked with _pk, along with the first field, must match, updating highlighting and duplicate search links.
Automatically converts each browser search term to ignore accents and diacritical marks, preserving grouping, negation, quoting, and keywords; now obsolete since Anki natively supports this.
Adds a shortcut button to the main window that opens the note editor directly, letting you create a new card without navigating the deck list.
Adds keyboard shortcuts to navigate the deck list, expand or collapse decks, open decks, options, statistics, add notes, and sync without using the mouse.
Adds four options to the {{type:}} field in Anki:
ignore_case makes the type field ignore case when checking the answer.ignore_accents allows the type field to disregard accents and diacritics when checking the answer. For example, 'café' and 'cafe', 'naïve' and 'naive' are treated as the same.ignore_punctuations makes the type field ignore punctuation marks when checking the answer.ignore_extra_words accepts the answer as correct if the typed text contains the correct answer as a substring. Particularly useful for cloze deletion cards where users may type the full sentence instead of just the hidden phrase.
The options can be used together or separately.
This add-on checks what you type against the correct answer without worrying about uppercase/lowercase letters, accents, or punctuation. For example, "ÀNKI!" and "Anki" can be treated the same based on your settings. It adds a script to your card templates that use the
{{type:}}field without changing any existing code. This makes the add-on work on AnkiDesktop, AnkiDroid, and AnkiMobile.
- First, you need to restart Anki after installing the add-on.
- Check the 'Front Template' of your card to see if the
{{type:}}field is present and the script tag is added. It looks like this:- If the script tag is present and it still doesn't work as expected, please open a support ticket above, labelled 'Issues'; If on AnkiWeb, click 'Contact Author'.
Go to Addons->SmarterTypeField->Click "delete addon". This will also automatically clean up the script tag from your cards.
