Opens field content in a separate dialog using a customized TinyMCE editor for advanced table editing, with configurable shortcuts and optional custom CSS.
Loads pathology e-slides from provided links in an in-Anki browser with pan/zoom, preloads the next slide, toggles provider banners, and offers encrypted auto-login for some providers.
Enables editing cards directly during review via double-click in-place editing or a persistent editor window that auto-loads the current card and hides fields on the front.
Opens a cursor-centred menu to hide selected text as spoilers, change colors or font size, or strip added HTML, with a configurable hotkey.
Minimizes Anki to the Windows 11 system tray, auto-syncs on hide, shows due-card notifications, and optionally starts minimized with Windows.
Enables the companion glasses app to display and advance Anki cards on Meta Display Glasses, with optimized animated media loading, preloading, and reliable reconnection.
Each time Anki opens the editor, it launches a new instance. On Windows, this means that the editor takes about a second to open, and a bit longer to have the information ready.
This addon opens the editor in the background on startup (or first time the editor opens), and hides the editor on save, allowing it to be opened more quickly.
Extra Details: Benchmark: On my Windows 11 PC, I ran a simple AHK script to benchmark how fast Anki could open/close the editor in a loop. In 10 seconds, it opened it 12 times at the fastest, but usually about 8 (among all video drivers). With Faster Editor, this benchmark jumped to 28 times in 10 seconds.
Though this seems like a ~3x increase in performance, its actually even more quick than that. During the test, the editor did not have text rendered each time it was opened/closed - even with a basic card - meaning that it is actually slower than that for the new instance to completely initialize.
