[Feature Request] Different Smartnotes for decks that have same notetype

[wadid]

I use a generic Note type for different content types in my Anki decks, such as AWS Questions and Java Questions. Both decks use the same card type but need different prompts.

Here’s my proposed solution:

• Default State: By default, a deck is deactivated for card generation.
• Activation Button: Include a button to activate a deck for smart note generation.
• Individual Prompts: Allow the possibility to set an individual prompt for each deck that can override the global prompt for the Note type.
• Global Prompt: A general prompt used for card generation if no individual prompt is set for a deck.

Process:

When generating cards, first check if the deck is activated.

• If the deck is deactivated, do nothing.
• If the deck is activated, check for an individual prompt.
• If an individual prompt is present, use it.
• If no individual prompt is present, use the global prompt.

@wadid this is a good callout, thanks for describing a potential solution. Definitely need some functionality to better support reusing card types between decks, this is on my radar and will be included in a future version.
