Error "indent / unindent currently only works with list"

Hello,

in Anki “cloze text” card editor the error “indent/unindent currently only works with lists” always occurs as soon as i try to indent/unindent without using formatted “lists”.

using windows 11

using anki ⁨24.11 (87ccd24e)⁩

got a new dell xps 13 notebook. the error message never occured on my old notebook and indenting / unindenting always worked. i downloaded anki in my new notebook and imported my old anki file. since then i can no longer indent / unindent.

I also downloaded recent versions of anki - but diddnt work in older anki versions either

Any clues why?

Thanks in advance! I am currently studying for my bar exam and without indenting in anki i can no longer work with anki :sob:

No, but same happens for me too, so its probably not an issue on your side.

As a workaround, you could use something like this:

This is a question...<br><span style="margin-left: 2em;">...with indented text.</span><br>

You have to click on the < > button next to your field and paste it there.

Anki has never supported indent/outdent except for lists. Is it possible you had an add-on on your old computer that gave you this functionality?

Oh dear! I’m so stupid! Yes, it was the missing add on that I had downloaded in the previous version. I downloaded it again and it works perfectly again.

Thanks for your hint!

Which add-on, if I may ask?
