Request permission to use the API exposed by this plugin. Only request coming from origin listed in the webCorsOriginList option are allowed to use the Api. Calling this method will display a popup asking the user if he want to allow your origin to use the Api. This is the only method that can be called even if the origin of the request isn't in the webCorsOriginList list. It also doesn't require the api key.

Calling this method will not display the popup if the origin is already trusted. This should be the first call you make to make sure that your application and AnkiConnect are able to communicate properly with each other.

Thank you in advance for your help and consideration. I got a few screenshots out of that. Any help would be greatly appreciated. Anki 2. Fatal Error Detected. I found that Anki was the best way for me to memorize all of the SketchyMedical sketches. I still remember them all and use this knowledge in my clinical rotations.

The cards in this deck contain small, cropped portions of the overall sketch — these force you to focus on all of the small details of each sketch. You must download these decks to your computer, NOT to your phone. You must also have Anki installed on your computer. Once you download them your computer that has Anki installed, open them.

They will open directly into your Anki app. Now that they are on your computer, you can sync your Anki account with your phone so that you can access them on the go. If you do not want to use these, feel free to delete them by sorting your cards by that specific tag, highlighting all the cards under that tag, and simply deleting them.

I only use it for my main screen however, as it can glitch a bit in reviews half the screen goes black and covers up the card. Only change I would like to see implemented is the ability to have a different background in normal and night mode. That's a great idea. I'll consider that for future versions! Very nice, however, is there a way for me to cycle through my own custom background images, or do I only get to stick to 1 image if I use my own one Edit: nevermind i found out it changes every time you open the app not when the app is open.

Good background Comment from author. Was this accidentally a dislike? If not, please email me and I'd be happy to help work through whatever you don't like. I am trying to use a image of my own. However, it is not working.

The format is PNG by the way. Is there any requirement in regards to the image features? The transparency needs to be on point for Anki to be able to use the image as a background. I changed the dislike for a like. Thanks a lot. Your support was very prompt. Great Job, AnKing. Are you configuring it properly? Have you seen this video that goes over it? I'm more than happy to assist and would appreciate if you change this to a like.

I get the following error when I try to add it: "One or more errors occurred: Invalid code, or add-on not available for your version of Anki.

I'm working on the update right now as stated in the add-on description. It works now. Thank you for your great effort. Sorry for disliking. If you want to change this from a dislike to a like, I'd be happy to send you a beta version. Thanks, I hope that's updated now Side note: I really appreciate the work you guys do! It flashes white whenever I click onto a deck. I'm not sure how to fix this as I'm new to Anki. When I switched to night mode it flashes black.

Really unfortunate since this looks amazing. Edit: Made the image file size smaller but there is still a white flash which is an eye-strain. It's slightly better than what it was before though.

I'll just try to deal with it Comment from author before post was edited. This is due to Anki reloading the page and is an issue with Anki, not the add-on. If you try to use a smaller file size image as the background, it should decrease that. Feel free to email me at ankingmed gmail. I don't know why but the pictures are blurred and for some reason a white screen appears when i click on something It's really frustrating because it's a great add on but it doesn't work for me : Comment from author before post was edited.

I'd be happy to troubleshoot this for you if you wanna switch the dislike to a like : The white screen issue has been determined to be due to having really large file size images which the default are. Unfortunately using a lower file size image usually means decreased quality.

Feel free to shoot me an email at ankingmed gmail. A great add-on, but I'm also having a white-flash whenever I click on a deck. Did anybody ever find a fix to this issue?
