- (2022-02-26) Hakan Özlen: Great app! Thanks. I think text would be better for reading if it was pure white instead of transparent white.
- (2022-02-23) CONATUS: 이전에 비해서 갑자기 번역에 오류가 많습니다. 예를 들어 원문-->Trump sides with Putin as Biden tries to stop a war 번역-->푸틴으로 푸틴이 있는 트럼프 측면은 전쟁을 막을려고 합니다. 구글번역-->바이든이 전쟁을 막으려는 동안 트럼프는 푸틴 편을 든다. 이렇게 차이가 있습니다. 한동안 잘 썼는데 어느 순간부터 번역이 안드로메다로 가기 시작하더니 저렇네요. 번역엔진을 Bing으로 바꾸면 약간 나아지지만 역시 이전에 비해서 정확도가 많이 떨어졌습니다.
- (2022-02-19) - Sano -: Doesn't work at all. I tried on many websites, and many settings.
- (2022-02-15) Agus: very nice
- (2022-02-11) Hyunsu Kim: 굉장히 유용한 플러그인입니다. 그런데 크롬의 CPU점유율이 높아집니다. 그래서 너무 아쉽습니다.
- (2022-02-07) Justin Brown: The extension works very well and seems fairly light-weight. Just prior to this edit I discovered Google integration appeared broken, or at least nothing was getting translated. Switching to Bing fixed the issue making me suspect Google's translate API was upset from repeated "translate this" calls. Or maybe it was just down. If not already implemented another feature might be to detect unresponsive or "untimely" translations and if an error is detected display some sort of hover-over "translate API call error" message. Regarding Gabe's pedantic reply: Previously the extension appeared to break viewing PDFs in Chrome resulting in a file not found error. It was very annoying because it took a couple of days to narrow down to this extension. Given this, and the lack of a support thread, I opted to write a three-star review pointing out the problem and requesting the option to disable PDF viewing integration. That apparently triggered the resident troll. Since then an option to disable PDF processing was added. This feature works perfectly. Also it appears whatever was breaking PDFs is fixed although it's unclear if this was an issue with the extension or something else. Bumping from three to five stars for the awesome support. For the sake of anyone who cares (which hopefully is nobody, but historical context matters) here is Gabe's original reply: Gabriel's Ladder - Dec 21, 2021 hey dumb dumb. There IS a way to turn it off. The same exact way you turn ANY EXTENSION OFF?!?! How about, take the amount of time you took to write this negative review and just google "How do I turn chrome extensions off"? Or, grow an extra two brain cells and click on your EXTENSIONS BAR AT THE TOP RIGHT, and FIND THE BUTTON YOURSELF. I think the positive result of my original review speaks for itself. Hopefully anyone considering Gabe's "how to deal with undesirable software features" will quickly realize that while tossing your computer in the trash will almost certainly resolve any frustration with your web browser it's like choosing to burn your house down to fix a squeaky floor. The old saying "throwing the baby out with the bathwater" might resonate with the older crowd. Yes, Gabe is probably a troll but how can I pass up the chance to hoist him by his own petard? And if he isn't a troll, perhaps he simply haunts various forums seeking those rare opportunities to display stunning intellect and exemplary caps-lock skillz. Fortunately most everyone blessed by examples of his wit will likely do what I should have and ignore him.
- (2022-02-03) Yan: very handy
- (2022-01-27) Kroomer KMR: En general bastante bueno, aunque no es muy intuitivo su instalación, opciones y uso, pero aquí pueden ver cómo se habilita https://taalextensies.wordpress.com/mouse-tooltip-translator/
- (2022-01-26) Hank: 너무 좋습니다. 잘사용하고 있습니다. 파이어폭스용으로 혹시 만들어 주시면 더 고맙겠습니다. Едге 에서는 서비스 작업자중지가 계속 뜨면서 작동이 잘 안되네요.
- (2022-01-25) P H: The same language will still display the translation prompt
- (2022-01-24) Null: 정말 좋은 익스텐션입니다!! 그런데.... 현시점 최신 크롬+MacOS 12.1 환경에서 잘 쓰다보면 크롬의 CPU가 100% 넘게 사용될때가 생깁니다. 다른 익스텐션 전부 disable하고, 이 익스텐션만 사용시에도 이런 현상이 발생하는데요.. 그럴때 이 익스텐션을 잠시 정지했다가 다시 동작시키면 CPU 과다 점유 문제가 해결됩니다. 임시방편이긴한데, 개발자님이 이 문제 고쳐주시면 좋겠습니다! 😀
- (2022-01-20) NK Zxcv: this extension is very good, i love it
- (2022-01-20) Xeno Xeno: If your Chrome suffers from taking high CPU rate, just disable this extension. This extension takes high CPU rate especially you browse facebook.
- (2022-01-14) Null: 정말 좋은 익스텐션이네요.
- (2022-01-12) Daniyar Davletov: Mi piace.
- (2022-01-06) ҈: полезное расширение 👌
