Symbols not showing #1

Closed Emile-ajar closed 5 years ago

Emile-ajar commented 5 years ago

Hey,

I wrote on the Ankiweb page that symbols are not showing for me.

As requested: 1) Version 2.1.15 (442df9d6) Qt 5.12.1 PyQt 5.11.3

2) Windows 10 pro (latest update)

3) English (UK)

4) image

5) All symbols.

I went through my entire list of add-ons and disabled each of them one-by-one. I found, interestingly, that the Frozen Fields add-on appears to be the cause of the issue. When it is disabled, Symbols As You Type works.

Please let me know if there is any more information I can provide and thank you for this great add-on, I hope to get it working :)

I have also checked if the "Remember last input when adding" option in Note Types --> Fields --> Options evokes the same issue and it does not.

Thanks for doing all that digging! Turns out this was a conflict between this plugin and Frozen Fields. Frozen Fields replaces one of the default card editor functions with a custom one, which meant that the code to check for symbol replacements was no longer running, as this plugin's code was attached to that default function.

I made some changes to make this plugin less vulnerable to these types of issues. Please update to the latest version and see if this still a problem!
