Progress Bar

A progress bar that shows your progress in terms of passed cards per review session.

SCREENSHOTS

Default settings:

Bottom location, rounded corners:

VIDEO TUTORIAL

The customization and use of the Progress Bar add-on is demonstrated in the following video (alongside other similar add-ons):

COMPATIBILITY

Initial tests have shown this add-on to both work on Anki 2.0.x and Anki 2.1.x. However, as the Anki 2.1.x line of releases is still in beta, I cannot provide any kind of official support for this platform. Please do not report issues with Anki 2.1 in the review section below. Instead, please report all issues you encounter on GitHub.

BEHAVIOR

The bar can’t be seen from the list of decks. It opens in a deck’s overview page, and, by default, the bar goal for a session is the total new, lapsed, and due cards in the deck at that point. Upon completion, the bar remains full as you’re taken to the deck’s overview state. If you leave the review state otherwise, the bar resets.

CONFIGURATION

By making small changes at the top of the add-on’s source code, you can change the colors, make the corners more rounded, decide whether to see the percentage (e.g., “50%”), or alter the bar’s orientation (horizontal or vertical), location (which of the window’s four sides), and direction (which way it moves).

The configuration section will also allow you to customize how your card tally is calculated. By default, both new cards, cards in learning, and review cards are factored in. Each of these queues can be individually toggled off by setting its respective variable to False at the top of the config section.

SUPPORT

Please do not report issues or bugs in the review section below, as I will not be able to reply to them nor help you. Instead, please report all issues you encounter either on GitHub, or by posting a new thread on the Anki add-on support forums while mentioning the name of the affected add-on in your thread title.

CREDITS AND LICENSE

This is a fork of an add-on which was removed from AnkiWeb in early 2017. The original was most likely written by nest0r/Ja-Dark who apparently deleted all of their shared Anki resources. There is no way to tell for sure since the original add-on description did not contain a copyright notice or attribution to a specific author.

The modifications since the re-upload are Copyright (c) 2017 Glutanimate.

Works with the tweaks provided in reviews below.

Does not work out of the box (to make it work see reviews from 2024-06-14 and 2022-06-07). Once made functional, works as intended.

! However it still doesn’t work with my Anki 23.12.1 (QT6). I made some changes to the script referred in step 6 with the help of ChatGPT, and it works perfectly.

Here is my modifed version: https://gist.github.com/xebecnan/443b0edca2a56a066ebe1a366581a8b4

This might be breaking for some on Anki 23.10+ if so please check out this installation guide on how to get a Fork of this add-on to work for you! Consider donating to Glutanimate’s Patreon as well if this helps! Link to Guide: https://youtu.be/sk6vkfgL07E

Great Tool but hasen’t been updated by the Author. but luckily Anki has a great community:

Same Tool for newer versions: https://ankiweb.net/shared/info/1685464019

For Version 23.12.1 you need to go to “Anki - Tools - Add-ons - View Files - 1685464019 - reviewer_progress_bar.py” and replace the .py file with this one here: https://github.com/liuzikai/anki-addons-misc/blob/master/src/reviewer_progress_bar/reviewer_progress_bar.py

x2 ¡Muchas gracias al revisor en 2022-06-07! El complemento ahora funciona después de seguir los pasos. Antes de darle un disgusto a este complemento, desplácese hacia abajo y mire el método para que funcione, es realmente fácil. De todos modos, este es un gran complemento extremadamente personalizable. Lo recomendaría.

The fix in the reviews works. BUT this addon is still incompatible with “deck and card info sidebar during review (https://ankiweb.net/shared/info/673114053). If you try running both together, you’ll get an error after ~30min of use. If someone finds a way to hack this addon to make it compatible, please let us know
