Bold inside the flashcards?

[joao-casali]

Hello everyone,

I've noticed just today that inside the review cards, the bold content doesn't shows up as bold.

I've some Snippets enabled, but turning all of them off doesn't resolve it.

Here's an exemple:

• Inside Obsidian, is normal, just the way I want:
  

• Inside the Spaced Repetition review window, without any content showed as bold:

Any idea what can be this issue?

FYK: I'm not the most tech savy, but I know the basics.

Hi @joao-casali

Best if you also post your actual markdown file and a screenshot of the following settings:

One thing is that for your second list item, the text (presumably "2") has been turned into a "cloze". This means that whatever characters that surround the text, matches the cloze settings.

Cheers

Hello @ronzulu,

Here's my settings:

---

Make no mistake, I know that with this settings, any bolded content is transformed into a cloze. I love this feature and want it to remain that way. I just would really like that inside the SAME flashcard, a bolded part, other than the one that is "clozed", would appear as bold.

That helps to memorize multiple parts of information faster, with just one flashcard.

Here is a .md that contains everything that I sent: Test.md

How it's displayed inside the regular Obsidian app:

Here's how it's displayed inside the Spaced Repetition, when using INLINE or MULTILINE:

Unfortunately, all bolded formatting is lost when reviewing another bold cloze:

• Maybe the way the code is ran automatically "unbolds" all the other bolded parts that arent't the one being currently answered?
• That would explain why the INLINE and MULTILINE still retain the bolded parts, but not the other way?

It happens differently, but the outcome is the same.

One idea to achieve what you want would be to:

• enable "Convert curly brackets to clozes" and
• disable "Convert bolded text to clozes".

You would then need to use something like:

Random list:
- Item {{**bolded one**}};
- Item {{**bolded two**}} + *italic*;
- Item {{**bolded three**}} + <u>sub</u>;

And this would show up as:

disable "Convert bolded text to clozes".

This works JUST THE WAY I WANT IT. Thanks!!!

I've an inconvenience though, any idea how I could transform more than 2000 flashcards— mostly the bolded type—, in a fast manner? Simply switching the double asterisk ( ** ) for the curly braces isn't straight forward, since there are two symbols for them ( {{ and }} )?

TY @ronzulu!!!

Well, I ended up changing manually all the flashcards. Took me 4h but managed to do it.
