Amazing work, congratulations!

Would you adapt your last script to screens 4k and white themes? I had tried with chatGPT but the result is so bad

Thank you!!

vet8t6z79pc4 · April 15, 2025, 9:25am

Change the style-related variables here.
--font_color: #e0e0e0; is the font-color.

    :root {
      --width_small: 440px;
      --height_small: 260px;
      --right_pos: 0.5%;
      --bottom_pos: 5.5%;

      --width_big: calc(100vw - 424px - 5px);

      --font_size: 1.1rem;
      --font_color: #e0e0e0;
      --line_height: 1.7;

      --lingq_background: hsl(41 43% 30% / 0.7);
      --lingq_border: hsl(43 99% 64% / 0.3);
      --lingq_border_learned: hsl(43 99% 64% / 0.5);
      --blue_border: hsl(213 99% 64% / 0.5);

      --is_playing_underline: #ffffff;

      --grid-layout: 1fr var(--height_big) 80px;
      --video_margin: 0 0 90px 10px !important;
      --article_height: calc(var(--app-height) - 205px - var(--height_big));
    }

The video size is dependent on this code.

:root {
                --height_big: 400px;
            }

Perfect!

I would like to move it to the right sidebar so that it takes up the entire side. Is it possible? now I can’t set the score of know word because it is not viewable.

vet8t6z79pc4 · April 15, 2025, 10:11am

TIP: You can also change the status of the word with hot-keys ‘1, 2, 3, 4, k’

Patch note:

Fixed some hotkeys-related glitches.

it is almost perfect. I just need to know how change colors new brown LingQ to yellow original range. And the other side, now when I play audio or video I have lost the sync audio display style underline

is it possible repair those?

vet8t6z79pc4 · April 15, 2025, 2:33pm

PLZ read this post

I named the variables to make them easy to understand. Change them.

CLDavid · April 15, 2025, 3:37pm

Sorry, I saw the post but just wanted to know the original RGB colors, HSV in this case.

The main trouble is that It lost sync between audio and text and now the underlined no appear

Thanks for this.

I use 2 monitors and I wonder if there is a way to let the translation “window” appear on the second monitor? (since I still think the main text and video is all I really want on my main screen)

vet8t6z79pc4 · April 16, 2025, 4:14pm

There’s no way.

I can not extract the translations. (I don’t use translation feature provided by LingQ).
Controlling another window is out of the scope of Userstyle.
You need to manage the translation in the other window manually.

JanFinster · April 16, 2025, 4:24pm

Thanks.
Not sure what I am doing wrong, but the text is all at the left and scrolls.

Also, I do not want the yellow box around the characters. And, dark mode turns the text to a hardly legible beige ?

Video2

Change the value of the border-related variables

      --lingq_border: hsl(43 99% 64% / 0.3);
      --lingq_border_learned: hsl(43 99% 64% / 0.5);
      --blue_border: hsl(213 99% 64% / 0.5);

      --lingq_background: hsl(47, 100%, 50%, 0.4);
      --lingq_border: hsl(47, 100%, 50%, 0.3);

      --blue_border: hsl(214, 100%, 50%, 0.3);

Last value is the oppacity.

vet8t6z79pc4:

      --lingq_background: hsl(47, 100%, 50%, 0.4);

      --blue_border: hsl(214, 100%, 50%, 0.3);

Text is still in the left corner…I will look into this on the weekend. I am sure I will figure it out. Thanks again

Change the layout to the Video
Video2 lists the article, the word widget, and the video horizontally. It’s for wide-screen users.

Patch Note

1.3: Article is displayed in a single page.
1.4: Now the sentence playing is located at the center of the screen. You don’t need to scrol acording to the playing video.
1.5: Provide new hotkeys: Move the cursor to the reference input (`), Open Dictionary (d or f), Open Translator (t), and Copy selected text (c)
