LWP413 Posted April 17, 2018 Share Posted April 17, 2018 (edited) Hey guys Is there a way to dock the highlight window instead of having it floating about? I like to have 2 or 3 workspaces open at times. I'll use highlights in one, but in the other the floating window just gets in the way. Would be great to have that highlight window docked into specific workspaces. You can see in the image attached - I have an empty reference list on the left of my screen just so that my highlight window isn't blocking anything useful. I'd prefer that window to be "glued" in on the left instead of hovering over the empty list. Edited April 17, 2018 by LWP413 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Helen Brown Posted April 17, 2018 Share Posted April 17, 2018 I'm afraid that isn't an option at the moment. Lets see whether others would find it helpful. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Steve King Posted April 18, 2018 Share Posted April 18, 2018 Yes I think this would be a good feature to have as an option. I have a workspace set up so that there is space available to have the highlights window open but as soon as I move to another workspace I need to get rid of the highlights, even if I intend to go back to the original workspace. So a +1 from me. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Benjamin Gladd Posted April 18, 2018 Share Posted April 18, 2018 (edited) There's been some discussion of tweaking the highlighting feature and making it more flexible. See here. I'd like to see highlights, perhaps one or two colors, built right into the Toolbar. It would save me lots of time!

Yes maybe even one which was a drop down from the toolbar showing the first say 10 highlight styles - Word has a similar feature: However if you had a large number of highlights or wanted to include the symbols then a dockable window would be more appropriate. I suppose flexibility (complexity? ) is the watchword. Edited April 18, 2018 by Steve King 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
