Description

An add-on that changes pinyin with numbers to pinyin with tone marks. This can be helpful when creating notes on a computer with a keyboard that cannot type characters such as ī or ǚ. I hope it can help you as well :)

Usage: By default the add-on will be applied on all fields that are called "pinyin" (case-insensitive). For example "xian4zai4" will become "xiànzài". Apostrophes are also inserted where necessary, so "wan3an1" will become "wǎn'ān". In addition, "v" will be transformed to "ü".

Change all notes in a deck: To change all notes in a deck, select the desired deck in the main screen and click the button "pin1yin1 → pīnyīn: apply to active deck" in the tools menu. While editing a single note: When finishing editing a field the add-on will automatically change the text. To see the changes, click out of the field.
