Flashcards: entering characters

[tomasi]

I am trying to set up flashcards again after being away for a long time. This is probably a naive question. I have added a test type that shows "definition" and prompts for "reading". What I want is to be able to enter the character/word using the keyboard. However, when I do that it seems that the input is flagged as wrong (at least it is marked with a red question mark) with this error message:

I am using 3.99.1.44.2.

Sorry, if it's prompting for 'reading' why did you enter a character instead of pinyin? "Reading" is asking for the Pinyin / Zhuyin / Jyutping / Yale / etc reading, not for the characters; to have it prompt you for characters you would want to pick 'headword' instead.
