Canvas blocks button interaction

[JMan-Zx]

The main canvas is currently covering the entire screen, so hint buttons cannot be interacted with. A hack is to just change the top of the canvas so that it leaves some room on the top, but that may not work depending the size of the notecard. Is a more permanent workaround possible?

What are hint buttons? I have not heard of it before. Would you mind to elaborate/give an example (ideally with a screenshot) please?

Yes, there is a potential solution of bumping z-index of such buttons.

Anki has support for several input methods. Hints is just one of them. I used type (explanation video) extensively a while back which has the same problem.

My hack was to disable the canvas and let inputs through while drawing is disabled. Worked well enough for me and works for all kinds of input.

Example of type input:
