How can I make it so that when I flip the card, information in my lecture notes field instantly appears instead of having to click on the icons such as below
Hello,
Do you have the Anking Note Types addon? If not, I would encourage you to install it as it will make things quite a bit easier.
The addon can be found here (https://ankiweb.net/shared/info/952691989) and/or installed from this code: 952691989
Once you have it installed, and have restarted Anki, you should see ‘Anking’ at the top of your main screen.
From there, select the note type (if it’s the Step Deck it’s likely the AnKingOverhaul note type):
Select ‘Hint Buttons’:
And then there should be an option labeled ‘Auto Reveal Lecture Notes’ which you can toggle on:
After adjusting that it may be that you have to restart Anki for the addons changes to take effect but you should be good to go.
Please let me know if that works for you, and if there is anything else we can do to be of help.
Thank you so much this is great. Was not aware of this add on. Is there any other add on’s that you would recomend since I am a new user to the anKing deck
No sweat, happy to help.
There are, for better or worse, hundreds of Anki addons.
There is a general list of some Anking-recommended addons here: https://www.theanking.com/best-add-ons
I probably have 40 or so addons that I use, though at this point I largely don’t think about them because I’m so accustomed to them. Happy to answer any specific questions, though, if you have any.
