Limited despite not reaching the limit percentage

[GotFlojo]

I'm not sure why I am getting limited here. Basically all of these are below 100% so shouldn't new cards remain? I'm not getting any. If I set it to the deck defaults they get removed ( I guess that is what the addon does 😅 ) I don't have any Young Limits set (default applies), just Load Limits as this is what I want to not grow.

Maybe I'm missunderstanding how this is supposed to work.

Based on what I'm seeing the add-on should not be limiting new cards. What is the Daily Limits > New cards/day limit under the deck options, and is it Preset/This deck/Today only? The add-on does not replace that setting so it may be the bottleneck here.

Another theory of what could be happening is that the add-on will only apply limits once per day by default. If you have been adjusting the limits then you would want to use Tools > Limit New by Young > Recalculate today's new card limit for all decks to force it to update. Or just wait a day.

Let's take my swedish deck for example: It's currently set like so: Preset/This deck/Today 0/13/0 with the Today settings applied, meaning I don't get any cards.

If I go into the options and set it to Deck an hit Save then the 13 new cards from the deck setting is applied (as expected). If I run Recalculate today's new card limit for all decks it says updated 1 Deck and I'm back to 0 new cards on the deck

Aahh I get it: it uses the Preset for calculation, not the setting that is currently applied. If I set Preset to something other than 0, then I get new cards.

Imho it should differentiate between Preset and Deck. I guess if there is a This Deck setting it should have precedence before the Preset setting. This mimics the way this option works anyway.

Agreed. It would be best to have the add-on key off of whatever value Anki uses before the add-on gets call. I'll look into what it will take to get that updated.
