Frequently Asked Questions

Due to browser add-on limitations, this can't be done directly by the add-on. However, you can use third-party software like PowerToys - Always On Top to achieve this. Don't forget to uncheck "Close popup when origin window is focused" on the settings page.

Try disabling other add-ons to see if the issue persists. If you're using Edge, also check edge://settings/superDragDrop. If the problem continues, please create an issue on GitHub.

The update process may take up to 7 business days due to review procedures.

The preview window is based on the native browser window, so customization is not supported. Firefox users may be able to adjust it using userChrome.css.

You can enable the "Only respond when dragging to empty areas" option in the settings to preserve the page's native drag behavior.

Known Issues

On Firefox

When system scaling is not set to 100%, the popup window may briefly flash when it appears.

On macOS

The preview popup window does not work properly in fullscreen mode. For best results, use the window in non-fullscreen mode.
