Overview
Product summary
Review the store description, core capabilities, and common use cases.
Easiest way to highlight text on any webpage! Simply select text, then right click it to select the "Highlight" option. Alternatively, use the default keyboard shortcut 'Alt+H' (^H on Mac).
All highlighted texts are saved so that your highlights are not lost when exiting a page! Simply re-opening that page will bring back all the highlights. NOTE: This does not work on very dynamic webpages like Facebook and most email clients. Support for these might be added in the future.
➪ View and copy all highlights on a page
➪ Copy all your highlights to your clipboard easily.
➪ Select existing highlights with a simple click to either delete them or to copy their content.
➪ Customize your highlight colors (and text color).

Por el momento todo bein. Solo el shortcut no me sirvió y lo cambié.
I have been using this extension for a few years without much problem. I think most reviewers don't realize that after you install the extension you need to refresh ⟳ any websites that are already open in a tab. The developer should write that clearly in the instructions. Also the developer should let users know that extensions are not allowed to work at the Chrome Web Store or any special chrome:// pages. Attention Developer: There is a way to make extensions install the content script on tabs that are already open when an extension is installed using chrome.scripting.executeScript(). More information at: https://stackoverflow.com/questions/10994324/chrome-extension-content-script-re-injection-after-upgrade-or-install
"That Girl" is my hero this morning! Thanks for easy tip on how to make this awesome extension work.
I did not clear cache But some of my website Highlighting markings are missing...
Does not work for me. Even Highlighting is barely possible but only if you deactivate all other script blocking plugins. And there is no option to copy/transfer the text into a external markdown app. Standard copy paste does not include the highlights. Sorry for that bad review - maybe i am only a layer 8 problem :-)
First, thank you to "That Girl" for the quick how-to on making this extension work! This extension is awesome! I can now highlight directly on a website, even exit the site, go back to it...and my original highlight is still there! I tried this on several news articles. It works! What a great researching tool!
Guys it does work! After you've installed this highlighting tool. On your chrome, Click on the option that has the three dots (top right corner) > Settings > Accessibility > Click on "Show a quick highlight on the focused object" Then refresh the page with the document you want to highlight, select the text, and then right click "Highlight" (or Alt + H) Hope that helps :)
So far works for me. And I loved it. It made my research work easier!!
useless, does not work at all!
