Description

Get to know cards before really learning them — without ever changing their status.

You preview/"pre-learn" cards (cycle through them, reveal and hide the answer), and they stay exactly as they are (e.g. new). Only when you explicitly release a card does it leave the preview, ready to be learned normally afterwards.

Concept

A preview is a named container backed by the tag preview::<name>
Cards with that tag are "in the preview"; releasing a card just removes the tag — scheduling is never touched
Multiple independent previews (e.g. one per subject) exist side by side
Cards enter via a saved search filter; optional batches show only N cards at a time

Usage

Tools → Preview Learning … opens the manager
Create a preview: name, search filter (e.g. deck:"BGB AT" is:new), optional batch size
▶ Lernen opens the learning window

Keyboard shortcuts (learning window)

← / < and → / >: previous / next card (in the active table)
Space / Enter: show / hide the answer
D: release (the selected cards, otherwise the current one)
B: open the current card in the Browser to edit it

Single-click a row to show that card; Cmd/Shift-click to multi-select (the shown card stays); double-click a waiting card to move it into the batch; right-click a column header to choose columns.

Nothing here answers a card or writes to the scheduler — rendering is read-only, and the only change is adding/removing the preview tag (undoable).

Developed for modern Anki (Qt6).
