Embed search result rather than opening new page #6

Hi. I really like this longman dictionary extension. Thanks a lot.

I had been using Google Dictionary Extension which shows search results in its own modal.

I found it fascinating. Right now this extension tends to open new page,

so I'd like to suggest embeding search result as a conveninet feature.

@ckcks12 Thanks so much for a suggestion! Let me clarify it. This extension shows a search result in the embedded bubble, rather than opening a new tab. Basically this is the main function that I referenced the Google Dictionary Extension. Did you mean that you wanna see the full search results found on the official Longman dictionary website in a bubble? or upper right where all extension icons reside?

ckcks12 commented 4 years ago

I'm talking about upper right one.

Well, it opens new tab. However the google one does like below.

@ckcks12 Sorry for the delay, the extension I was referencing is this. https://chrome.google.com/webstore/detail/google-translate/aapbdbdomjkkjkaonfhkkikfgjllcleb Could you provide the URL of the extension in your image please?

Re: I found it! I'm gonna try to copy the equivalent of the current result from API and show it under the icon 👍

Oh Thanks a lot :) If you need help just let me know. I'm glad to help you. Once it would be done, I'm gonna spread it out to all of my friends :) This app should be used widely more than now. haha
