Sometimes while browsing through various websites, we unexpectedly come across a topic of interest but find hard to comprehend the meaning of words or sentences as the texts are mostly written in a foreign language.
Being unable to manage this problem independently we usually turn towards the Bing or the Google Translation service! You have to select a text, right-click and then select “Translate with… ”. This will open the results in a new window. But what if the whole process could be cut short using a simple utility, and the results could appear as a pop up on the same webpage?
DualClip Translator software does exactly this. The program when downloaded and installed provides translation of selected text or clipboard contents with Google/Microsoft Translator. The translated strings of texts appear either in the System Tray Balloon or in a pop-up window. Let's see how it works?
How DualClip Translator works
Download the DualClip Translator 5MB size file and install it.
When installed, the application will reside in the system tray as a small balloon.
Next, to start first set the preferences by right-clicking on the system tray icon and selecting 'Options'.
Then, set the 'Preferred' and 'Dual language' and set the translation service (Google or Microsoft).
The next step is to decide whether you want to view the results of translation in a balloon or window. If in the window, choose the desired font.
Also, if you want you can use the application with 'Hotkeys'. By default, a list of hotkeys is provided along with their sequence which helps you in remembering their functions.
Once you're done you can save the settings by clicking on the 'Save' option.
Now, for viewing the foreign language texts in your desired language, press Alt+C and read the translated texts.
As mentioned earlier, you can view the translation in the system tray balloon too.
To translate and replace the original text in the clipboard with the language of your choice, use Alt+X.
If you would like to save the translated result in a text file, right-click DualClip's system-tray icon and choose 'Save' option.
