by Neko, 4 years agoIf Google Translate is expensive, then why not use a different service? There's DeepL, Yandex Translate and probably many more. Google isn't even the best machine traslator. It would certainly increase the useability. The pictures I try to extract text from often have just half of a sentence, so I have to open 2 google tabs to read one sentence and it loads quite long every time a new tab is opened.
The "Copy to Clipboard" button doesn't work for me.
Every new recapture deltes the text in the textbox instead of just adding to it, so I could scann the whole sentence before going to google, instead of opening google twice.
It would be great if the capture window would be re-sizeable as it takes up my whole screen when open.
The Copyfish window also becomes invisible if I change the background color of a website with a userstyle (Stylus) to black (bc in-built darm modes are still not a thing for some reason).

posted 4 years agoAll the translation services you mention are at least as expensive as Google translate :-(

- Rated 1 out of 5by rado84, 8 months agoIDK what useful does anyone see in this extension! It keeps failing everywhere - on FB, on YT, on image hosts where you store your memes... It's always unhappy with the image size.

- Rated 5 out of 5by FFme, a year agoI'm using it to copy text from Amazon Kindle books. The line breaks aren't great, but that's too be expected. Works great otherwise. Thanks for the great work.

- Rated 3 out of 5by zgorg, 2 years agothere is a bug: under firefox, shortcut only works after having run once (headbar icon)
I reduce my notation for the fact that you have to go on a site to report a bug and having to register.
