Extension summary
I wrote this chrome extension rather hastily as a way of reducing effort and errors for a small group of friends when they copy-pasted question texts from a PDF while reading games on Zoom for season 1 of FLQL. I'm delighted that this plugin has found acceptance among a much larger crowd around the world since. If you have ideas for any features I can include, or if you see any bugs, or perhaps a better name for this plugin, please send them across to [email protected]
Some updates in this version:
- Now supports an easy way to include one image per question. Look at the .tsv format here https://docs.google.com/spreadsheets/d/1mj0rD0yKsQo2cOoO9hZhntEknjpTzXf51RVI4QicHdI/edit#gid=0
Image URLs almost always end with '.jpg' or '.png'. You can upload to a site like imgur to get these links for images that you're not directly taking from the internet. Large images are downscaled so that their longest dimension is 680 pixels.
markdown for text emphasis and images. Look here for a quick guide https://www.markdownguide.org/basic-syntax/#emphasis . This is useful if you want to embolden a part of the text ( text to appear in bold ), or italicise part of the text ( text to emphasise ). Because underscores are used to represent blanks, underscores are taken literally and not parsed for both emphasis and underlines. Asterisks in the middle of a word are parsed as literal asterisks. This feature is untested for horizontal lines, tables, lists, headings, and code blocks. If you know what you are doing, you can have raw HTML instead of markdown. It might help when you want more images per question, control over the size of images, or change colour of text.
A button to display answers. The answer text can support markdown as well (and thus images). This button must be continuously pressed for 1 second to prevent accidental clicks. If you do not want readers to show answers, leave the answerText column in the google sheet blank when creating the tsv.
