Thanks for the report. Some quick questions:

• Does the hotkey work? (highlight a term, then press Ctrl+Shift+D, or whatever the equivalent on macOS)
• What happens if you disable all other add-ons, restart Anki, and then try again? (Night Mode in particular is known to interfere with add-ons that modify the reviewer)

Hi,

I did some trial and error and the program only works when Night mode & Hierarchal tags are disabled

Thanks for the follow-up! OK, I'll be closing this in favor of krassowski/Anki-Night-Mode#53 then.

(You should be fine reactivating Hierarchical Tags. There should be no interaction between the two add-ons whatsoever).
