Description

This add-on was funded by the Anki Mastery Course. Please consider supporting our work using the links below so we can continue to fund add-on projects like this. You must be on Anki 2.1.45+ to use this add-on This add-on enhances the editor with autocomplete functionality. When you type text in a field or even just click on it a list of values from existing cards will appear. These values will be only from the exact note type and field that you're typing into. The auto-completion makes it easy to fill a field which always takes on one of a set of values (here the autocomplete can be used the same ways as a dropdown menu). When you click one of the values (or press tab) the field will be set to this option. The autocomplete feature can be toggled on and off for a field by clicking the "A" icon, or using a keyboard shortcut (F4 by default). The setting will be remembered for the next time you edit such a note. The search mode can be set to strict (default) or loose in the add-on settings. When using the loose search mode, searching for e.g. "ate" would also bring up "rate", which wouldn't show up in the strict search mode. This add-on is based on the anki-editor-autocomplete add-on. Screenshots strict search (default) loose search Problems, Bugs, Errors, Improvements If you find a serious bug, please submit it on Github or email us at ankingmed@gmail.com.

Fantastic!
FYI, I made language note where I have PofS (part of speech) field...now choices are easy with few letters AND it is spelled/capitalized the same way every time. Wonderful!

Awesome! That's exactly what we were hoping it would be helpful for!

What a hidden gem!!! This addon is really, really great! ❤️

Personally, I'm using it for two fields - Topic (like Math, Computer Science) and Source and it does its job really well! :D

It's not compatible with Multi-column note editor https://ankiweb.net/shared/info/3491767031

Temporary thumbs down because I haven't been able to use the add-on yet
Comment from author
This likely isn't an issue that we'll be able to resolve as that add-on and this add-on both heavily modify the editor. If you share as many details as possible to the github repo we'll look into it though!

Nice to just click once and be done when cards share similar or exact matching fields

Amazing add on, tip; make sure to go to the config to make it so it can search parts of words!
