Bug Report: Editor updating non existing card

Anki Help
1

This causes a few steps to trigger:

  1. Open the reviewer
  2. Open the EditCurrent
  3. Open the browser
  4. Delete the current card in the browser
  5. Close the EditCurrent

This gives me the following exception:

Caught exception:

You can only escape it by force closing Anki.

I think the issue is:

  1. EditCurrent pushes its active card onto the reviewers cardQueue
  2. main window calls self.reviewer.show()
  3. show() calls next(), which takes the topmost card from the cardQueue, which was already deleted by the browser

Thanks for the report, Iā€™ll look into this.

Did you rule out add-ons? There is logic in the code to account for this already, and I canā€™t trigger it here.

Hm, I could have sworn I deactivated all add-onsā€¦

However, I tried it again, and I still get a notification to use ā€œTools > Check Databaseā€, and upon that I get

Deleted āØ1ā© card with missing note.

Database rebuilt and optimized.

I canā€™t reproduce the original issue, but can reproduce that and will fix it in the next update.

(please let me know if the former issue persists after updating)

Okay thanks, and sorry for the inconvenience.

Not a problem, thank you for the report!
