Is there a way to combine SVG with cloze deletions? When a cloze {{c1:: …}} is applied to a plain string, resulting in <tspan>{{c1::...}}</tspan>
, the text gets messed up. Note: The x position is only given for the first character in <tspan>
so that the text length can be dynamically adjusted.
See below for an example:
@tobias.predel Wrong thread, this should be split into a different thread.
To answer your question: Not that I can think of. The {{c1::}}
syntax will be replaced with HTML during review, so it cannot work within SVG.

Yes, unfortunately cloze deleting HTML is not possible.

Yes, there’s a way, though I’m unsure if it applies to all types of text in SVGs
Here’s a screenshot.
Here’s the actual content of the field, though it may not appear the same in your card as most of my styling is done with the note-type css.

Get the svg by making a diagram in apps.diagrams.net , and then using the export → embed as svg option.
Copy the html, (where a script of mine strips away unnecessary code, and changes some styling), paste it in anki’s html editor.
Switch to the normal view of the editor, select the text, and cloze it.
It could be that clozes are not working for you because they are contained in <tspan>
in your svg, whereas mine uses some <foreignObject>
thingies and contains the text in <div>

Thank you for your hint!
It is indeed a little bit complicated but it works!
