Front side of the card doesn't clear itself

Anki Help

Hi

I hope this issue hasn’t been discussed here before, I didn’t find anything similar.

When using the desktop version (both Mac and Windows), I have a problem that came up recently: After adding a new card, normally everything is cleared automatically, right? But this doesn’t work any more like it used to; now what I wrote on the front side of the card just stays there even after I added the new card (resulting in the box immediately being marked red as a duplicate).

In order to add another card, I have to clear that field manually every time, which is a little annoying.

This problem has started occurring a few weeks ago, out of nothing – I haven’t updated anything.

Does anyone have a solution for this issue?

Thanks a lot!

If you click the pin icon at the top right of the field, the content will be cleared when you add a card.

Ahh, well that was easy!

I guess I could have found that out myself. Sorry for the inconvenience and thanks for the help.
