Register QDict as Android dictionary

[dmanolov]

I use QDict a lot. But it does not appear in the list of dictionary apps in ReadEra app, while other dictionary apps that I have on my smartphone appear automaticity there. I don't know what is necessary for QDict to be shown there, so I can be able to open QDict as main app when I click "Dictionary" or "Translate" button in ReadEra. This way QDict will be opened with current selected word automatically filled. Any improvements in QDict app or instructions how this functionality can be achieved will be very welcome.

Now "Capture search from clipboard" setting in QDict does not work and does not help much when one does searches. One has to do the following to search for unknown word:

1. select the word in ReadEra with long click
2. hit "Copy" from the popup menu
3. switch to QDict app
4. hit the blue "Search" button down right
5. go to the search box at the top of the screen
6. select the word there
7. long press for clipboard to appear
8. paste the unknown word from clipboard (usually clipboard is again at the bottom part of the screen)
9. hit the left arrow at the middle left part of the screen to hide the clipboard and the keyboard to become visible again
10. hit the "Search" button down right on the keyboard
11. read the unknown word definition
12. switch back to ReadEra app

As you see, too long process for a book with a lot of unknown words :-). It is much faster with other dictionaries:

1. select the word in ReadEra with long click
2. hit "Dictionary" from the popup menu
3. read the word definition in the dictionary app
4. hit phone "Back" button to go back to text in ReadEra app
