posted 2 years agoHi zyl456,
thanks for your rating. As from what I read, in your option the edge (quit zone) of the QR code is too big and saving the QR code image is too cumbersome.
First of all, let me explain that the whitespace around the QR code is important from a technical point of view for most QR code readers to properly recognize the QR code. See https://github.com/rugk/offline-qr-code/wiki/FAQ-(chinese)#%E4%BB%80%E9%BA%BC%E6%98%AF%E5%AE%89%E7%A9%A9%E5%8D%80 (or https://github.com/rugk/offline-qr-code/wiki/FAQ#what-is-a-quiet-zone in English) for more information.
Secondly, for design reasons AFAIK some more space is kept.
When saving the code as an image, we offer two variants. That is as SVG or PNG. See https://github.com/rugk/offline-qr-code/wiki/FAQ-(chinese)#%E5%A6%82%E4%BD%95%E5%B0%87-qr-%E7%A2%BC%E5%84%B2%E5%AD%98%E5%88%B0%E7%A3%81%E7%A2%9F%E4%B8%AD (or https://github.com/rugk/offline-qr-code/wiki/FAQ#how-to-save-the-qr-code-on-disk in English) In order to convert the image into the proper format, there are two context menu entries. Unfortunately, once you use more than one entry, Firefox automatically makes this a sub-menu, so there is nothing we can do there.
The permission is requested, because this is the only way to show a "Save file" dialog, where you can choose where to save the file. It should only be requested once and if you have approved that optional permission, there is should not need to do that again. It is an optional permission to keep the number of permissions low especially as not all users may use this feature.
See https://github.com/rugk/offline-qr-code/blob/master/assets/texts/zh-CN/permissions.md (or https://github.com/rugk/offline-qr-code/blob/master/assets/texts/en/permissions.md in English) for more information about the permissions this add-on requests.
If this helps, it would be glad if you could adjust your voting.
If you have further issues or questions, feel free to ask or suggest a feature by opening an issue on https://github.com/rugk/offline-qr-code/. Thanks.
Best regards

posted 22 days agoHi, and thanks a lot for your rating. I'm sorry that the extension does not satisfy your expectations. If I understand you correctly, you do not like the way the extension showed a prompt asking you for a review on addons.mozila.org.
That said, I can reassure you the likelihood to see such a prompt is very low and e.g. only shown after you have used the extension for some time and e.g. not shown again if you have dismissed it explicitly twice.
As this add-on is open-source, you can also check it's source code at https://github.com/rugk/offline-qr-code/blob/master/src/common/modules/data/Tips.js, if you are interested in the technical details or want to verify my claims here.
Also notice there are other helpful tips that may occasionally been shown, but they are really kept to a minimum and many users do e.g. not know that they can help the add-on and support it by writing a review.
I am afraid this has disturbed you and want to apologise.
If you have further issues or questions, feel free to ask or suggest a feature by opening an issue on https://github.com/rugk/offline-qr-code/issues/. Thanks.

rugk - Rated 5 out of 5by Yuhara, 4 months agoWorks flawlessly. Just kinda wish there's an option to generate by right clicking on the page (not on a link), since I prefer hiding my addons from the toolbar.

posted 22 days agoHi Yuhara,
first of all, thanks for your rating. It's great to hear that you like the add-on. 😀
The feature you requested (a common context menu entry for generating the QR code) is actually already implemented by a contributor in https://github.com/rugk/offline-qr-code/pull/336 and will be released in the future. Thanks for your suggestion, in any case!
If you want to find more information on how to support us, have a look at https://github.com/rugk/awesome-emoji-picker/blob/master/CONTRIBUTING.md#support-us. Thanks. 😃
Best regards,
