Dump.tools Chrome extension, v 0.1Beta ====================================== textchimp (c) 2012 (Tested only on Chromium 18.0.1025.151 (Developer Build 130497) Ubuntu 10.04) Installation: ------------- In the 'Extensions' settings page of Chrome, click 'Developer mode' on the top right to bring up a few extra buttons, and then click 'Load unpacked extension'; you'll be asked to select the extension directory (which is wherever you downloaded or checked out this thing to). Keyboard bindings: ------------------ TAB: show/hide preview panel ESC: close preview window (also close Favourites panel if open, close Search results if Open) `: show/hide Favourites panel ctrl+shift+z: toggle between white/black background Mouse bindings: --------------- ctrl-left-click: copy image to preview panel (i.e., no longer favs) shift-left-click: copy image to permanent favourites (middle-click? would be nice to use this for copy-to-preview, but i can't stop it from performing default behaviour of opening image in a new tab) Right click on any image in any tab and select 'Dump it!' to copy image URL to text input/preview panel. Issues: ------- * Images in preview window are top-aligned rather than bottom aligned, and probably not shown in proportion relative to each other... hopefully just a bit of CSS tweaking needed here * Any text (not image URLs) typed in main text input always shows on the right of all images in the preview panel, no matter where it's actually typed relative to the URLS... more CSS float tweaking * Current maximum of 5Mb storage for chrome extensions limits number of permanent favourites, as thumbnails are stored using DataURLs. Would be nice to have a way around this, or a better way to cache thumbnails, that doesn't slow everything down (see below). * The layout in the permanent favourites popup is a bit messy and chaotic, needs a cleanup. Also no way currently to delete items from the favourites, and (though there is a structure for tags in the localStorage data) no way to limit popup contents by tags. The popup will also get progressively slower to load as more favourites are added, even though the thubnails are locally cached...
