Description

This Add-On Fixes the macOS bug that Anki never sees Undo when the type-in-the-answer box is focused.

What this Add-On does:

  • Empty type box + Cmd+Z โ†’ undoes the previous card (no need to click out)
  • Text in the box + Cmd+Z โ†’ undoes typing first; another Cmd+Z undoes the card

Original Bug Report for the Undo problem was at https://github.com/ankitects/anki/issues/4525
