Make the Answers of Multi-Line Flashcards Editable from within the Queue

When I try to edit and correct a multi-line question from within the queue, I can never see the answers to my multi-lined question, but only the question itself (see example below)

The problem is; sometimes I have a typo in the answers below the question and it’s really bothersome being unable to view and edit these answers. Is there a way to access the answers of a multi-line question in a flashcard when editing from within the queue? If not, I would like to request this as a feature.

Click on the Question ( In this case Example) and press Ctrl + Down Arrow and it should expand the children of your question (i.e. the answers)

Thanks for your quick reply and solution to my problem! Actually I was pretty certain that this must have already been implemented as it would have been a pretty obvious bug. I don’t remember learning this in any of the interactive tutorials though… or I just missed it. Thanks anyway!

There is a solution available (Thanks @liberated_potato!), but I think it would be more productive if we could see the answers automatically since this is much more time-saving.

Yeah, you could actually label that as a bug too. The problem here (I think?) is that for editing only the rem which generated the flashcard is opened. This is exactly what you want for basic flashcards. For multiline/list the generating flashcard is the top one, but there are more rems involved (the children). Including them in the Edit Portal requires some extra logic.
