GoldenDict Forum

This will be added in one of the future versions.

Do you have any goldendict specific api?

Here it is - http://www.plecoforums.com/threads/custom-plugin.4462/
Pleco provides API for looking up words in their search box, nevertheless they recommend to use URL approach instead of Intents.

I'm currently using the following code and works fine :

Code: Select all

Intent intent = new Intent("colordict.intent.action.SEARCH");
intent.putExtra("EXTRA_QUERY", "hello"); //Search Query
intent.putExtra("EXTRA_FULLSCREEN", false); //
intent.putExtra("EXTRA_HEIGHT", 400); //400pixel, if you don't specify, fill_parent"
intent.putExtra("EXTRA_GRAVITY", Gravity.BOTTOM);
intent.putExtra("EXTRA_MARGIN_LEFT", 100);
startActivity(intent);


Could you please add the functionality to enable/disable dictionaries in the Android app rather than physically remove them?

And it would be nice to get the dictionary's description (annotation) when tapping on its name
and also to expand abbreviations when tapped on them.
