Forks can add features or work in a different way. Read the description before you change to another version. Fork detection is incomplete, so other versions can exist.
Adds an editor toolbar button that sends the active field's full content or highlighted text to the Anki browser search, optionally without the field name when Shift is held.
Adds a search box to the editor and reviewer for finding text within a card, with configurable shortcuts and highlight modes.
Adds configurable cloze note types supporting nested clozes, clickable hints, show/hide toggles, iteration through clozes, customizable scrolling, and in-reviewer search.
Highlights browser search matches within notes, including field code, tags, regex and overlapping matches, with auto-scroll, scrollbar indicators and customizable settings.
Searches multiple image providers using note fields or selected text and inserts chosen images into a configured field, with browsing, per-note-type settings, and smart replacement.
Provides a CodeMirror-based HTML/CSS source editor for note fields and card templates, with syntax highlighting, search and replace, external editor support, and saved version comparison.
This add-on is a fixed version for Anki25+ of the addon "Search from Editor for Anki 2.1", originally created by itraveller and credit goes to them.
This add-on is designed to search directly from the editor area, that is particularly useful to quickly find duplicates of the added note or synonyms and homonyms of the added word.
After installing you will find the 'S' button in the editor tool bar. When you press it the entire contents of the active field (or its highlighted part) will be sent to search box of the Anki browser. The search query looks like: "(field name:)(field content)" or "(field name:)(highlighted part)"
Push the button while holding the 'Shift' if you want to search without specifying the field name.
(this description was edited and copied from the original add-on page.)
You can change the shortcut keys in Config.
