If a user enables an old add-on and restarts immediately, it won't have
had a chance to update, and may raise errors that could have been
prevented if the user was running the latest version.
- web requests done on a background thread
- easier to use outside of the addon dialog
- gets max point version info from AnkiWeb, which we can use in
the future
wrap2() was introduced recently to try and resolve an issue where
styling outside of the wrapped section was getting lost. eg,
<b>some [text] etc</b>
When the user created a cloze deletion or added math tags to the [text]
part, the text ended up not being bold - the inner portion is displayed
without styling.
wrap2() used setFormat("inserttext", ...), which did fix that issue
- but it also introduced multiple new issues:
- any HTML inside the selected area, including newlines and images,
was lost
- the unicode entities inserted when creating a cloze deletion in
RTL mode end up inserted as plain text
For now, I'm just going to revert to the old behaviour. If anyone
has a suggestion for an approach that is able to preserve both the
inner formatting and the surrounding formatting, a pull request
or post on the forums would be appreciated!
The type hints allow mypy to check the gui_hook calls, revealing a
bunch of places that are broken as they expect no arguments like the
legacy hooks.
To make mypy happy about PyQt's signal.connect(func), a qconnect()
helper has been added.
- No need for the checkbox, as an unchecked box is equal to an empty
`QLineEdit`.
- The value was saved to the profile but not loaded.
- And the real pièce de résistance: I've figured out how to "Promote"
the `QLineEdit` to a `TagEdit`.
Hope you like it! :)
This prevents a startup failure caused by trying to set
the UI scale when .meta() is not working. Startup still
fails, but the correct message is displayed now.
This allows us to add a docstring to .append() so users can see
the names of the arguments that are being passed, and means we
don't have to remember to prepend run_ when calling a hook.
these builds are now available on
https://github.com/ankitects/anki-typecheck
The add-on docs will be updated shortly to provide info on
using the new hooks and type checking.
