- Rated 4 out of 5by Docdoc, 5 years agoBack in the days it was called rikai-chan and i was able to install different languages, is this still possible? How?
Developer response
posted 5 years agoYou can switch languages for the kanji dictionary at the moment from the settings panel. I will add language switching for the other dictionaries in the next few months. - Rated 4 out of 5by Firefox user 14991459, 5 years agoGreat extension, will help you learn new words. My only problem is, it could serve it well to have some explanation about it. Took me weeks to realize it had a Name Dictionary, even longer time to decipher what uk, ok, pn, (P) etc. meant, and I still don't know what some of them mean.
Developer response
posted 5 years agoThanks for the excellent feedback. I hope to make the ok, uk, pn, (P) annotations more clear in a future release after updating the database format. Currently they are simply the annotations used by WWWJDIC.
That's a good idea to help users discover the names and kanji dictionaries too. Thank you! - Rated 4 out of 5by Firefox user 15273754, 5 years ago

What I want is the 'top-level display' of translation/analysis only. Not including atomic or subatomic breakdown of components of highlighted items. Not that comprehensive analyses are useless. Usually, I want a quick translation. I have kanji options OFF. Still, pop-ups often take so much space that I cannot access the top-level display.

Not in the developer's purview. Abbreviations, say of government agencies and such, need the full expansion of names, like 'ABC' -> 'Absurdly Big Company' in the top-level display. I know dictionary compilation is done by others.Developer response
posted 5 years agoThank you very much for your feedback. I'm not sure I understand exactly what is included in the top-level display.
Would you mind to either file an issue at https://github.com/birtles/rikaichamp/issues or send a message on twitter (@rikaichamp) or email (birtles@gmail.com). Thank you! - Rated 5 out of 5by Arttaaz, 5 years ago

- Rated 5 out of 5by Firefox user 15442925, 5 years agoI use this all the time! I am (for the first time) having a problem: on www.orangepage.net, the popup window shrinks and turns transparent and thus unreadable. Is there anything I can do to make it look like usual?
Developer response
posted 5 years agoThank you! I will try to fix the orangepage issue. You can follow the progress here if you like: https://github.com/birtles/rikaichamp/issues/144 - Rated 5 out of 5by Firefox user 15324516, 5 years ago

- Rated 5 out of 5by Lidia, 5 years agoThe application is great, but recently I have been having some major problems with the fonts. The English translation is shown in different fonts, on different pages. It is very disturbing... I tried to reinstall the add three times, I reinstalled Firefox as well two times, the same problem...
I do not know if someone will read this, but I pray to God someone would help me..
It is a great aplication, saved my life., but the different fonts are killing me, as it is more difficult to concentrate.
Please, help!Developer response

I have an idea that might fix this but I have not heard anyone else having this problem so I would like to find out more about what causes it. - Rated 5 out of 5by kokoro, 5 years agoI'm trying to learn japanese so this extension helps me greatly when translating stuff!

- Rated 4 out of 5by maxlefou, 5 years agoGreat. But would be even better if it was also providing romaji version of the readings
Developer response
posted 5 years agoYou can turn on romaji from the options page. Just tick "Show romaji".
