Compact popup and multi-kanji lookup coming soon

[birtles]

Hi, just a heads up that I've made a few changes to the popup behavior.

There are two problems I want to fix:

1. A lot of people get overwhelmed by the number of entries shown in the popup (e.g. Limit the entries shown by default #1036)
2. Some people want to look up all the kanji in a word at once (e.g. [Feature Request] Clickable kanji to get individual definitions from "words" tab #1138 and Feature request: Add an option to show all kanji definitions for the entry #1238)

Shrinkwrapping the popup

I've made it so that, by default, the popup only shows the most relevant (i.e. longest) matches. To see the rest you need to either scroll the popup or expand it.

You can expand the popup by clicking a little down arrow or pressing x on the keyboard.

Multi-kanji

Looking up multiple kanji works in the same way. By default we only show the first kanji, but you can scroll down to see the other kanji in the word, or press x to see them all at once. It uses scroll-snapping so that as you scroll it jumps to the next kanji.

Also, when you go to copy using the keyboard (c) we scroll the popup so that the selected item is always visible.

Next release

This has taken more than a week of full-time work so I hope it's right. I hope to ship it soon along with a few other changes like WaniKani level data and a setting for increasing the popup font size.

I still have a few other fixes to make first, however, so please let me know if you have concerns with the feature.

Here's a little video of it in action:
