Pre-defined field values to choose from

[omega3]

Would it be possible for you to enhance this add-on so that it can use as a source fields from multiple note types or predefined list from some configuration file?

Current situation is:

"These values will be only from the exact note type and field that you're typing into."

Maybe for someone is an advantage but for other users it might be a limitation. User if wants to use this in another note type needs to first create some notes and add some values so that they can be searched for after that. Otherwise it finds nothing. With predefined values in configuration, it wouldn't be a problem anymore.

Besides when database is big it works slowly on slow computers. That is the biggest drawback.

This Idea can be done as a separate add-on if you don't want to mess with the code of this add-on.

This issue was discussed here:

And here is the mentioned in above discussion pull request:

Obviously, the idea of using a list in some configuration file is just a proposal. What is important for me is the end effect, which is unifying all these names used in "part of speech" field so that they are the same across different note types and decks.

Actually I can use find and replace to unify already made notes to one standard but anyway, such functionality seems to me useful.
