# Current Situation
|
|
GoldenDict did offer a functionality to translate the word under cursor(when scan popup been enabled) on Windows.
|
|
the technique used there is old and can not work crossplatform .
|
|
|
|
with the help of another great tool [Capture2Text](https://sourceforge.net/projects/capture2text/) ,GoldenDict can work with ocr seamlessly.
|
|
|
|
# Note
|
|
Capture2Text has offered Windows precompiled executable files.I think it would be easier and possible to make it work on Linux as some afforts have tried.
|
|
- [Capture2Text Linux Port](https://github.com/GSam/Capture2Text )
|
|
- [another on nixos](https://github.com/sikmir/nur-packages/blob/7c876e3fb20160781207a8f652fb052647e6da0d/pkgs/misc/capture2text/default.nix) from [sikmir](https://github.com/goldendict/goldendict/issues/1445#issuecomment-1022972220)

# Configuration on Windows

configure the Capture2Text ,see screenshot following

|
|
`path\GoldenDict.exe "${capture}"`
|

|
|
|
|
|
## configure hotkey
|
|
I only left three of them .
|
|
|
|
|
|
## configure `First word only`
|

without this configuration ,it will capture the last word of
