Feature request: Allow Neovim instance to appear as a floating window

Open jonathanmorris180 opened this issue 10 months ago • 2 comments

First off, thanks for this great extension/plugin! Currently writing this in Neovim and loving it!

Similar to #1640, I would really like to have the option of having the Neovim instance appear as a floating window on the page instead of embedded within any given text element. The reason for this is that elements are often too small or inconveniently located to make the embedding practical. The text input on Facebook Messenger is an example of this (the script mentioned in #1640 didn't help in this case):

Thanks!

looks like there may be a workaround in #968

edit: wait, nevermind, check #1559 where the author recommends https://github.com/fregante/GhostText

@vxsl Oh interesting, thanks for the callout. Will have to give it a try.
