Allow seeing page contents while entering text in input prompt

[balazsbotond]

When I'm writing a reply to a comment (on Station for example), sometimes the comment is covered by the input window and I can no longer read it while composing a reply. I need to copy the text, click Cancel, read the original comment again, click reply again, paste and continue writing.

It would be much more convenient if I could use the scroll wheel and/or the scroll bar to scroll the page under the popup window.

Also, sometimes the relevant part of a page is at the top and even with this scrolling feature, there is no way to scroll such that it isn't under the input window. Being able to also move the window would solve this.

Yeah the input dialog is a bit cumbersome.

A workaround I recommend for now is to use split view mode when writing a reply. For example, Shift-Click on the "Reply" link on Station.

I'm considering changing the design of the input prompt. If the prompt was inlined, for example, the rest of the page would remain available normally. This would also be pretty flexible considering different-sized screens.

That's a great workaround, thanks!

I like the idea of inlining the prompt, it would solve both problems mentioned above.

Thanks for your work on Lagrange and being so responsive (I guess being in the same timezone helps :) ). I use it every day and it makes browsing Gemini a very nice experience.
