Quick image/emoji insert #60

Could quick inserting icons/emojis be useful for mnemonics in supermemo ? Inputs please.

Bank of image
Quick search on google

Currently, it generally takes me too long to add images to language cards to consistently bother doing it but a quick search function would change that and likely be a much better workflow than having to switch to chrome. I think I could make use of emojis but I'm not sure I actually would. The first use that comes to mind is using them as sort of tags for topics (e.g. I do #discord when I have a topic I want to post and discuss on discord) but really why not just make a direct feature to be able to go through tags? Curious what Luke would think about better tagging management features.

How about a Pop-up image searcher that lets you extract directly from the pop-up window

rajlego commented 4 years ago

I'm not sure extracting would help that much, I don't think I've ever had an instance where I did IR on an image. I'd mainly want a window to pop up that when I select a suitable image either adds it into the image component or changes the template to a picture one and then adds it in.

I think what @bjsi means, is a quick search popup:

Press keyboard hotkey to show popup
Type search terms
Plugin looks for you on several image platforms
Select which image you want, and insert in SuperMemo

Late but I think this would be great, I think something just like the ctrl+f3 search menu but in SM would be much nicer.
