I am encountering an annoying bug in the browser on Anki Version 2.1.33 (3f403040). This bug arises when I am editing preexisting cards in the browser, and causes whatever changes I make to the cards to immediately revert as soon as I change the flag on the card as an indicator that my work editing that card is completed. Here are the steps I can take to reproduce the bug with a high level of consistency:
- I have a set of cards which were originally basic note types.
- I tag all of these cards with flag-3 to keep track of them through my editing.
- I used shift+ctl+m to change all of these cards to Cloze types.
- I then click on an individual card to start changing it to be appropriate for clozes.
e.g.
“This city is the capital of Syria” —> Damascus (flag 3)
I will change this card to
“{{c1::Damascus::which city?}} is the capital of Syria” (flag 3)
-
As soon as the card is updated, I immediately hit ctl+3 in order to remove the flag from the card.
-
The flag is correctly removed, but approximately 50% of the time, at the same time as the flag removal, my card reverts back to how it looked while I was in the middle of editing it.
e.g.
“{{c1::Damascus::which city?}} is the capital of Syria” (flag 3)
hit ctl+3, then suddenly card transforms into:
“{{c1::Damascus}} is the capital of Syria” (no flag)
OR it transforms into:
{{c1::Damascus}} city is the capital of Syria" (no flag)
Like I said, this bug is reproducible with a high degree of consistency
