Replay buttons on card and 2.1.20

[Arthur-Milchior]

Anki 2.1.20 (currently in beta) adds a button to replay sounds. That's great. This means that this add-on become obsolete.
You might want to add the information on anki, "-19", to indicate that's it can be used up to version 19.

Not quite obsolete I'd say. So far the new button has a huge white circle for no apparent reason, and since it's a static img/png you can't get rid of (just) that.

I'd hope that either Anki directly switches to this addon's handling or the addon is altered to now replace that img with its cleaner svg.

[Arthur-Milchior]

Let me rephrase then
Current version of the add-on is obsolete; adding a second button makes no sens.
Replacing one button by another one would be a nice change.
You can also give your feedback about the button size on https://anki.tenderapp.com/
I won't do it because I don't care, but that's probably the kind of thing Damien Elmes would like to know

Left him a post yesterday, yes. I do hope he picks up this behavior as it matches AnkiDroid's, which likewise injects a svg.

(About the second button: There's none currently as the hooks also changed. For me addon does nothing on 2.1.20.)

I’v added a note at Ankiweb.
I’l now think about what to do. Maybe i’l look at a way to hide the original button. But that wil probably take a while, as i don’t work too much on these add-ons any more.

It is not obsolete. Anki 2.1.20 sound button doesn't look good (in my humble subjective opinion).

This is how Anki sound icon looks like:

I had this beautiful svg button

The advantage of svg is that users can easily change color and adjust size.

.card .replaybutton svg {
    fill:  #3399ff;
}

I was given this here:
#122

Damien will not implement this add-on in Anki. I already proposed it here:
https://anki.tenderapp.com/discussions/beta-testing/1708-anki-2120-beta/page/1#comment_48042382
but with no response to this idea from Damien.

Edition:
They can be styled a bit
https://apps.ankiweb.net/docs/manual.html#audio-replay-buttons
but still this is not the same effect as I showed with my styling for add-on.

[Arthur-Milchior]

I can update the add-on to ensure it hides Anki's button and use the one fo this add-on instead.
If anyone want to hire me, we can discuss it.
I must state that my original post was really about telling you the add-on was, as far as I see it, obsolete. I was not looking to find clients here

[omega3]

I figured out how to achieve the effect that I had before without add-on.

In Styling section of cards

.replay-button svg path { stroke: #2f2f31; fill: #3399ff; }
.replay-button { width: 35px; }
.replay-button svg circle {
  fill: #2f2f31;
  stroke: #2f2f31;
}

.card.nightMode { background-color: #2f2f31; }

Adjust colors to your liking. Colors should match background color for the circle to disappear.

The piece of code for this is in reviewer.css. At least in tar.bz2 version for Linux.

In this case add-on seems to be unnecessary, unless it can provide some extra features.

[Arthur-Milchior]

Add-on may be simpler for users: adding a number in manager instead of changing every note type. But I admit that seems less necessary than if you didn't have this CSS

Something like this can also be used to make it look exactly the same as before. To make it black, delete or replace fill='blue' with fill='black'.

.replay-button {
 content: url("data:image/svg+xml,<svg xmlns='http://www.w3.org/2000/svg' width='32' height='32' fill='blue'><polygon points='11,25 25,16 11,7'></polygon></svg>");
}
