JoshPannell Posted September 18, 2013 Share Posted September 18, 2013 I would like to be able to select multiple words at once in highlighting like I could in kindle, adobe, pages, notes, etc. As of now my only options are to highlight by word, sentence, or paragraph. Perhaps I would like to highlight two, or three words of a sentence. Perhaps I would like to highlight "Jesus Christ" and not just "Jesus" or "Christ."

Helen Brown Posted September 18, 2013 Share Posted September 18, 2013 This depends on being able to select at will, which is in the works but not yet ready for release. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Abram K-J Posted September 18, 2013 Share Posted September 18, 2013 Helen, that's great. I'd find the current system a little more workable, but even the sentence-level highlighting isn't always accurate. Periods in abbreviations, for example (especially, "B.C.") seem to throw the app off. I suppose the new way of highlighting will render this moot. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
JoshPannell Posted September 24, 2013 Author Share Posted September 24, 2013 Thanks! I am excited about the update! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
David Foster Posted November 5, 2013 Share Posted November 5, 2013 So will this new change allow us to highlight say a quarter of half of the paragraph? It's really frustrating only being able to highlight the sentence or the paragraph when most times it seems like I simply want something in-between! Excited as well though about the ability to select individual words... thanks for all the work. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
davidmedina Posted November 5, 2013 Share Posted November 5, 2013 That's great to hear because the highlighter is one of my main obstacles of using Accordance in my iPad. I need to be able to highlight just one or two words as I read and study my Bible. Hope we get the upgrade soon. Thanks Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
rcdeacon Posted November 5, 2013 Share Posted November 5, 2013 (edited) I am also very anxious for this update! Not being able to highlight words or phrases has proved to be a serious limitation for me and my iPad!

Paul Daunno Posted November 5, 2013 Share Posted November 5, 2013 Same here. It's a much needed feature and I look forward to having it. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
wrdh Posted November 22, 2013 Share Posted November 22, 2013 "Click and drag on an iPad," is still not an option? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
rcdeacon Posted November 22, 2013 Share Posted November 22, 2013 No it is not and this feature will probably not be in 1.7! Circumstances have dictated a revised roadmap on iOS features. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
