Hey guys!

This is the follow-up to the earlier announcement post. Make sure to check that post out for more background info on the idea behind this add-on!

Below you'll fine the download for the first Anki 2.1 compatible release of External Note Editor for the Browser – but first, the release notes:

Changelog

This is new in v1.0.0-beta.1:

Added

  • Anki 2.1 support!
  • Customizable hotkey

Fixed

  • Various smaller issues with dialog management

Changed

  • Rewrote major parts of the add-on, implement brand-new changes to the Anki add-on API (which should make the add-on future-proof for the Anki updates to come)

Requirements

External Note Editor should work fine on any Anki 2.1 release that's not too outdated (2.1.5 required at minimum, >=2.1.15 recommended).

If you're using an older version of BetterTags, please remember to upgrade that first. As I mentioned a couple of months ago, older versions of BetterTags can run into a conflict with newer add-ons when you attempt to run them on Anki 2.1.15 or earlier. If you're using a more recent Anki release you should be fine.

Installation

Same as always, please drag and drop the downloaded .ankiaddon file onto the Add-ons window, as showcased in the video below. If you are already on a newer Anki release, then you can alternatively also just double-click on the downloaded .ankiaddon file to install it.

Usage

With the card browser open, you can open the external editor window either by heading to EditEdit in New Window, or by using the add-on's hotkey (set to Ctrl+Alt+E / Cmd+Opt+E by default). The hotkey can be adjusted in the add-on's configuration.

=======================

If you run into any issues whatsoever please do let me know. Very much looking forward to your feedback!

Thanks again for all of your guys' support in making this add-on a reality!

I don't get this add-on. When I use the hotkey, it opens up an external editor, but in an "Add" window. How can I save changes without having to add a new card???
