Anki 2.1.50 Beta 1 & 2

Beta Testing
#7

For Linux users that are having a problem to decompress, the command
tar axf anki-2.1.50-linux-qt6.tar.zstd will not work with current files (unless you rename the compressed files)

Reminder: download zstd in your software management of your Linux distro or via terminal (Ubuntu/Debian)
sudo apt install zstd

Beta 1:

Qt5:
tar axf anki-2.1.50+beta1_43c41d76-linux-qt5.tar.zstd

Qt6:
tar axf anki-2.1.50+beta1_43c41d76-linux-qt6.tar.zstd

with the current install.sh file, the error mentioned by @throw appears
workaround: copy the previous install.sh file from Index of /downloads/beta/pkg-test-2/ then paste it in the new 2.1.50 beta file (replace)

Could you also fix the scrollbar in the edit and browse window of night mode?
Thanks, great work !!

Bug report! (Linux mint 20.2 XFCE, kernel: 5.4)

  1. (Qt5 & Qt6) Inside “preference”: “Theme: follow system” don’t recognize system night theme
  2. (Qt5 & Qt6) Old status screen breaks (Shift + “Stats”)

Note: is not 100% of the time that the stats breaks

Qt warning: QXcbConnection: XCB error: 3 (BadWindow), sequence: 1471, resource id: 9876633, major code: 40 (TranslateCoords), minor code: 0

about the Qt warning, also getting those when pressing “x close” on “check media” or when “build” in “options for filtered decks”

#16

Easiest fix until the next beta: after running install.sh as normal, run the following:

sudo chmod -R a+r /usr/local/share/anki

A fix will be in the next beta thanks to @hkr

The detection depends on your GTK theme name having -dark in it.

Thanks, should be fixed.

Probably a Qt bug, and can probably be ignored if it’s not causing any problems.

Version ⁨2.1.50 (43c41d76)⁩

Macbook Air (M1, 2020)
MacOS 12.0.1 (Monterey)

Problem/Bug:
Deleted inline MathJax code reappears when focusing onto the next field

Expected behavior:
The mathjax snippet shouldn’t reappear if I delete it then focus the next field

Steps to reproduce:

  1. Type the following into the first field:

I like mathjax

(where mathjax is an inline mathjax format)

  1. Click on the mathjax snippet and click the delete button
  2. Click (or Tab) into the next field

Workaround:
After you delete the snippet, hit backspace once, then the snippet won’t reappear.

I’m not sure if this is actually a bug or expected behavior for HTML

#20

I’ve yet another problem. After running install.sh as normal and running the above command, I try running anki, and it gives me this:

pinnerup@ergi:~/Downloads/anki/anki-2.1.50-linux-qt6$ anki
Anki starting...

EDIT: The error only appears with the Qt6 version. The Qt5 version runs as expected.

Something about your keyboard setup seems to be tripping Qt6 up. I recommend you fiddle with your keyboard config to determine the line that triggers it, then report the issue on https://bugreports.qt.io/

The new Alt + I shortcut is not working for “Previous Card Info” here. I’ve tried with different kb layouts, but none of them seems to work. No add-ons / other programs are being used.

As a purely cosmetic issue, the new icons are considerably bigger than those in the previous version, and, IMO, seems too large compared to other on screen elements. Same can be said of tag icons:

.

As a suggestion, the new full-screen mode (F11) is great, but hard to discover. Would you consider adding that option to the menus (maybe under “Edit” or “Tools”?

W10, QT6, no add-ons.

The shortcut was changed to Ctrl+Alt+i to fix issues mentioned here: Option+I shortcut conflicts with language input

Ah, OK, Ctrl+Alt+i works, but the “More” menus shows this:

Thanks for the report. There’s a few issues with Mathjax still, and I’ll include this in the list. I’ll hopefully get them out before the next beta.

This was likely caused by the toolkit update, since we haven’t changed the scaling factor ourselves. I made a PR.

It should be better on the next Beta release :slight_smile:

I like the idea, but only a few windows have a menubar. If we only added an entry to the main window, users might infer that other windows couldn’t be opened in fullscreen.
I would rather rely on inclined users trying their OS fullscreen shortcut and keep things simple.

Loading images is sometimes much slower than usual. I’ll try to find some pattern and elaborate with more detail if I can.

Also, just after trying a card with mp3 embedded, I’ve received the “mpv not installed” message. I’ve never had that problem before, and simply restarting the program solved the problem. I’ve tried to replicate the problem, with no luck, but will keep an eye.

#29

The layout is already flipped for RTL languages as far as I know, but aligning the contents of fields to the right automatically may not be desirable as RTL users don’t necessarily write all their cards in RTL languages. There is already an option to configure RTL direction under the Fields button.
