Right now, if I want to re-use an image that is used for an Image Occlusion card, I have to manually find it in collection.media. This is inconvenient. Ideally, I want the workflow to be like this:
You can’t add extra masks to the existing I/O note instead?
I would prefer to have separate notes in some cases.
In this post there is a hack to do it:
But yes, there should still be easier way to copy the image
Well @dae, seems like I’m not the only one who would appreciate the copy-paste image feature
Just a reminder. Btw, this would be very useful for converting old IO cards (made using the add-on) into new ones.
EDIT: just to clarfiy, ideally, I want to be able to select an image from the card’s field, click Copy, and then use “Past image from Clipboard” of the native IO. Also, right now I have no idea what selecting an image in a field and clicking Copy even does. So far I tried:
The way I see it, selecting an image in a card’s field and clicking Copy doesn’t do anything at all.
Can you at least add an option to display the name of the image file in collection.media? Right now there is no way to do what I want. I can’t copy-paste the image from IO card A to make IO card B, and I can’t find the name of the image file used in IO card A, so I can’t even find it in the media folder.
If I want to use image from card A to make card B, I have zero ways of doing that.
EDIT: nevermind, there is a way to find the name of the file. Still, copy-pasting would be easier.
Relevant issue: Using “Create copy…” in Image Occlusion card doesn’t copy the image · Issue #3247 · ankitects/anki · GitHub
Once we’ve tackled this, it would make it possible to pretty much instantly create an IO note from an existing one.
Thank you
