Changes in 2.0.11
If you’re upgrading from 2.0.8, please also see the 2.0.9 & 2.0.10
changes below.
* 2.0.9 introduced a change that produced cleaner HTML output when
editing fields, but unfortunately this revealed a bug in the GUI
toolkit which could cause Anki to crash when editing those fields.
So the 2.0.9 change has been reverted, and Anki will output divs
instead of br tags again. This update will not change the format of
cards that were created in 2.0.9 or 2.0.10 and thus they may still
cause crashes when editing, but any cards added after upgrading
should not trigger the toolkit bug.
* Fix problems syncing when Anki’s running on a mapped network drive
* Fix problems reporting correct error message when sync fails
Changes in 2.0.10
* Fix pasting of images
* Fix error when syncing media on an unmapped network drive
* Fix issues with non-latin text in images in card layout and preview
windows
* Fix unicode error on export
* Default to allowing HTML on import
* Fix error when opening card layout
* Force y axis minimum of 0 in reps graph
* Fix duplicate searching in Add window
* Improve type answer comparison of accented characters
* Make sure we show field when nothing typed in
* Allow apostrophe when renaming deck
* Mnemosyne importer tweaks
* Other minor fixes
Changes in 2.0.9
* Improvements to the type answer feature: no more "the correct answer
was" text, clearer indications of typed vs correct answer,
customizable colours (.typeBad/.typeGood/.typeMissed), monospace by
default so input+correct lines up (code#typeans), an example
comparison in the Cards dialog, and automatic moving of the answer
comparison underneath the Q/A line. Example attached.
* The browser now has a preview button that makes it easier to quickly
browse previews of cards.
* The /limit to tags/ and /study a random selection of cards/ options
in the custom study dialog have been merged together into a single
new option that allows you to study new cards, due cards or all
cards (cram), optionally limiting to particular tags as well.
* If Anki detects that the media is out of sync, it will now
automatically recover on the next sync. Furthermore, it no longer
needs to send files that already exist on each side, so when this
change is incorporated into the mobile clients you’ll be able to
copy media over to them to avoid a long initial media sync.
* When media is deleted via a sync or unused media, it’s now placed in
the OS’s trash folder instead of deleted completely. Likewise for
rotated backups and profile deletions.
* When notes are deleted, their content is logged in a file called
deleted.txt in your profile folder.
* The filter area when selecting decks or note types now matches on
consecutive characters, and uses spaces to separate search terms. So
if you had a deck called "German::Verbs", you can search for it with
"man verb", but not "grman"
* You can now choose a font size > 20px for the card list. It’s not
possible to resize the line height for each individual card, so
choosing a large font size in one note type will make the line
height large for all cards.
* Anki should output BRs instead of DIV tags when you hit enter in the
editor now, which should make editing the resulting text on mobile
clients easier. Note this will only apply to content you add after
upgrading.
* Card types are removed with an X on the tab instead of an item in More.
* Check Database, Unused Media and Empty Cards are now in the Tools
menu, instead of a submenu.
* Full Sync is now in the preferences, not in the menu.
* Syncing now checks to see if the database is consistent prior to
syncing, and if it finds any errors, it recommends a database check
rather than a full sync.
* If a database check finds any errors, it automatically forces a full
sync.
* When closing the collection, check for corruption. This makes
closing Anki and switching profiles a bit slower, but ensures that
corruption is detected early so that backups are useful.
* If user has Add window open and syncs, ask if they want to keep the
content and cancel sync if so.
* After uploading a collection, notify user they need to download on
other devices.
* More verbose sync conflict message.
* Shift clicking on a sidebar item in the browser will now OR it with
the current search.
* Prioritize HTML over images, so pasting from Microsoft apps pastes
text again.
* Timeboxing now pops up dialog instead of a tooltip, with options to
continue or finish.
* Don’t import notes multiple times when the note type has been modified
* Add mature correct/today stat to graphs.
* You can now hold down the shift key while starting Anki to disable
add-on loading and automatic syncing (except if you’re on an old
Linux distro).
* Make sure to update card order when changing, adding or deleting
option groups.
* Make sure to shuffle after importing txt or apkg files if your deck
options say to shuffle.
* When exporting to an .apkg with scheduling off (or when sharing a
deck on AnkiWeb), new cards now have their current order preserved.
* Anki will now warn when you try to add a cloze deletion note without
any deletions.
* Anki will allow you to cloze delete when a normal note type is
selected, with a popup warning instead of an error.
* Anki should now run on an unmapped network drive on Windows and
display images correctly.
* Ctrl+Shift+T (Command+Shift+T on a Mac) now jumps to the Tags entry
field.
* When pasting from field to field, strip <span> tags that were being
inserted by WebKit.
* When importing from a text file, include a list of all updated or
duplicated notes in the import log.
* Fix unused media spuriously reporting unused media with leading
underscores.
* Fix cloze+latex issue where multiple answer images were generated.
* Fix cloze+latex issue where unused media deleted used images and
created others.

alphabetical order.

apostrophe in them.

had non-latin characters or punctuation characters.

Anki is a program which makes remembering things easy. Because it is a lot
more efficient than traditional study methods, you can either greatly
decrease your time spent studying, or greatly increase the amount you learn.
Anyone who needs to remember things in their daily life can benefit from
Anki. Since it is content-agnostic and supports images, audio, videos and
scientific markup (via LaTeX), the possibilities are endless.
This package contains the major version 2 of the program.
