The Google Chrome 'auto slide down language translation bar' is INFURIATING!
Just when the page has loaded and I am about to click somewhere, the entire page shifts down about 2 centimeters to reveal the translation bar, and I often end up clicking completely the wrong link - which is irritating just once, but when it happens a LOT it is very frustrating.
Suggestions:
- When the bar slides down, do NOT scroll the web page
- The scroll-bar could slide in from somewhere else (left/right hand side)
- The bar could be a floating window that appears where I am probably NOT looking (I'm sure all the web usability data out their could help generate an algorithm for its positioning).
- A much smaller 'Translate' icon/button is overlaid in the top right hand corner, which when pressed reveals the translation options (this is probably my preferred solution)
Also please bear in mind that most people probably dont want to translate EVERY page ALL THE TIME so this feature, although very useful, should be far more discrete.
