I’m a long-time user of Anki. So thankful for the developers and community!
When I’m editing a card on my Windows PC version of Anki, I right-click on an image and click “Open image” to edit it. After editing the image (e.g. cropping and saving), and closing the “Edit” window for the card, all the new text changes update, but the image doesn’t update on the card until I do a restart of the software.
The image has definitely been updated. When I go back to try and edit what appears to be an “unchanged image” on the Anki edit window, turns out to be the edited image once I open it with the standard Windows basic photo editor. So the edits are saving successfully to the file (I save the image using the same file), but Anki is not updating the card image until a software restart.
Is this intentional (for a reason not apparent to me)? Is this a bug? Is this only a problem with my version of Anki, and I need to reinstall it?
The issue still occurs when I disable both my add-ons.
