Moving page preview window

  • Problem: Page preview windows are sometimes uncomfortable. A example is when you want to take a quick look over a list of links, let's say, a category page. While your common method of looking over the list is to move the cursor upward or downward, the page preview may cover the later links you have to check, so you need to move your cursor off the link where the preview popped up to make it dissapear and continue normally.
  • Proposed solution: Make a mobile page preview, so that when the cursor passes over it, makes it repel. In other words, make the preview detect in which way the cursor is moving to appear in the opposite side. That means you can never click on it? Yes. You have the link you've hovered over for it.
  • Who would benefit: Users who want to do quick checking of articles with no distractions.
  • More comments: A simple functionality for that specific situation can also be made.
