objavljeno ob pred enim letomYou should be able to highlight with the key shortcuts found in the context menu. Select text, right click, Yawas and you'll see the key shortcuts listed there. On Chrome it is Cmd Shift Y (Yellow, etc) - Ocenjeno z 5 od 5— Aqordeon, pred 2 letomacool. but there was an issue if the font is in white (or something gray). the font is hard to read if the background is colored. it would be great if you add feature to change the color too.

--option to instead of date folder structure to just list all in one folder (prefixed with date stamp)
--option to exclude page title (for easier skimming and review on other devices)
--organizing them within folders via category
--"snoozing" to a certain time and using as a flashcard system and overall more highlight management.
Also it is confusing how this has to do with Google bookmarks.Odgovor razvijalca
objavljeno ob pred 2 letomaI tried to store all inside a single folder but it was hanging the chrome or Firefox bookmarks UI. That’s why I had to separate them into year and then months. - Ocenjeno z 5 od 5— thedivclass, pred 4 leti
- Ocenjeno z 5 od 5— laodan, pred 4 letiThanks a lot. I'm a writer and find Yawas is a great tool to store future usable quotes.
The highlight works fine and Google/bookmarks is great for storage.
One suggestion would be to customize how the text of the highlights appears in Google/bookmarks :
-- you are using << as starting point of the first highlight on a given page and close it with >> << ... >> << ... >>
-- the next highlights follow as indicated
-- the result is visually confusing.
I manually edit the text of a bookmark by replacing << with br inside < >
and >> << with br br < >
The result is a clean and visually ordered text.
Would it be possible to tweak Yawas along those lines ?

Answer to your response here under.
I discovered indeed that Yawas does not find the highlights after having edited out the << and >>.
An empty line between highlights is radically improving readability and I discover that the presence of the markers is useful in the sense that they signal the presence of text on the webpage that was not highlighted in-between these markers.
Thanks for adding an empty line between highlights.Odgovor razvijalca
objavljeno ob pred 4 letiHello
By editing out the << and >>, Yawas will not find your highlights well the next time you visit the page. (It depends on these markers to recreate the highlights and comments)
But we could add newlines between highlights to improve readability.

Thoughts? - Ocenjeno z 5 od 5— OmTatSat, pred 5 letiThank you for great addon!
Also had problem "Didn't work. It said "Yawas cannot store your highlight because you are signed out. Please signin first and then refresh this page" I signed into google, didn't work.. "
To fix problem i logouted from gmail site in Firefox and logined again. After this, worked fine) - Ocenjeno z 5 od 5— Peter Lyons Kehl, pred 6 letiHow great. I compared many highlighting/note taking add-ons, and this one wins. Why?
- It stores the text(s) that you highlighted. Even if the page changes (or disappears) later, your highlights stay.
- It backs them up (stores them) and shares them with Firefox synchronization across your computers/profiles and devices.
Would you like to organize the bookmarks (and highlights stored in bookmarks)? Use https://addons.mozilla.org/en-US/firefox/addon/bookmark-search-plus-2.
Would you like to print a page with your highlights? Or to export it as a PDF? Don't use standard Firefox printing (or printing to a file). I tested nine most used and highest rated PDF extensions. Out of them, only one saves the page with your highlights. It's slow, but it works: https://addons.mozilla.org/firefox/addon/fireshot.
If a website disables right click/text select, use https://addons.mozilla.org/en-US/firefox/addon/absolute-enable-right-click.
Beware of 4096 characters limit for the total of the title and all the highlights.
