I made an Anki add-on for rebuilding long answers one word at a time
Check the comments for the updated file and the video showing how the new feature works.
Hi everyone,
I made a small Anki add-on called Progressive Image Occlusion.
The idea is simple: instead of revealing a whole screenshot answer at once, you can reveal hidden parts step by step during review.
I mainly built it because I struggled with long answers where the order matters. Normal atomic cards are great for small facts, but sometimes you need to rebuild a full explanation, process, diagram, table, or model answer in sequence.
The method I use is:
- look at the hidden part
- try to recall what comes next
- reveal the next word/box/group
- keep stacking the answer gradually
For word-heavy answers, I like revealing one word at a time and mentally stacking 2–3 words before continuing.

It is a public beta, so feedback or bug reports would be really helpful.
I’m not claiming this replaces normal atomic cards. I see it more as a tool for long-answer reconstruction, ordered explanations, diagrams, and screenshot-based study.
