Description

     Adds two hotkeys to the reviewer: 'H' to reveal hints one by one, 'Shift+H' to reveal all hints at once. Both hotkeys can be customized. CONFIGURATION To change the hotkeys, simply head to Tools β†’ Add-ons, find Hint Hotkeys in the list of add-ons, and then click on the Config button. The info pane to the right will explain how to set the keys. TROUBLESHOOTING If the default hotkeys and/or your customized hotkeys do not work, it is likely due to a key conflict with a card template, add-on, or Anki itself. In that case please try out another hotkey, taking heed to go back to Anki's main screen to make sure your changes are applied. CHANGELOG Version 1.0.0 – 2023-04-14 Changed
  • Completely rewrote the add-on with 2.1.5x+ compatibility in mind (tested on 2.1.49 - 2.1.62)
  • Changed default hotkey for revealing all hints to "Shift+H" in order to avoid key conflict with Image Occlusion Enhanced
Added
  • Hotkeys can now be configured via Anki's built-in add-on config editor
Fixed
  • Fixed an issue that was causing the add-on not to work properly when audio or TTS was present on the card (thanks to DoctorToBeIn23 for the report and ijgnd for the fix!)
  • Fixed an issue that was preventing the reveal all hotkey from actually revealing all hints
