Guntis Posted July 31, 2011 Share Posted July 31, 2011 If I want to use several highlighters in one verse, the way how Accordance treats highlights becomes problematic. For example in Luke 6:6 I want to underline "On another Sabbath" text. So first I place cursor in the verse reference (Luke 6:6) and click on the green color highlighter. Whole verse, including its reference, gets green background. Looks nice. Then I select "On another Sabbath" text and apply green underline highlighter. Suddenly green background disappears, only verse reference remains highlighted with this color. Why? I expect Accordance to keep highlighted background as long as I don't apply other highlight on top of it. Here in this verse only part of the text was selected for another highlight, so why all verse is loosing its highlight? OK, I highlight all text green again, then I select "On another Sabbath" text and apply green underline second time. This time I get green background for all of the verse and a few words green underline. But this way between the verse reference (Luke 6:6) and the text itself remains empty space with no highlight. And it's impossible to highlight empty space between the verses. Doesn't look nice. There could be some logic implemented here in the way how Accordance treats empty spaces between the verses. If the current verse has highlight for the whole verse, and the next whole verse is also highlighted, then previous verse gets also empty space after the verse highlighted, to get rid of the white (empty) spaces between the highlights. If the next verse has no highlight, then space between the verses also has no highlight. And in those cases when I apply two different highlights for the same verse (one for the whole verse and another for some words), please keep at least space between the verse reference and the text itself highlighted! Please could you correct Accordance behaviour in these situations? Here's screenshot: notice empty spaces after Luke 6:6, 8 and 9 references and between those verses.

Helen Brown Posted July 31, 2011 Share Posted July 31, 2011 Sorry, Guntis. This is how our highlighting works, in order to allow and display both word and verse highlighting in the same text. Trying to fill in the gaps would be very difficult. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
