Highlight

The text in the pdf file is searchable but the highlight tool is not active and will not work. How does somebody get it to work?

Searchable puts the text on another hidden layer. That is likely why you are not seeing the highlight since you cannot highlight a graphic. At least that is a guess.

  • Highlighting Text & Auto Text Options

    I've recently migrated from MS Word to Pages, and I'm determined to make this new relationship work. In Word I used its highlighting text (as with a real highlighter--yellow, pink, etc.) feature, as well as its Auto Text feature, in which I had a number of prescribed, hyperlinked comments. (I'm a teacher, and I would auto text things like, "comma error," which would then be linked to a web page about comma errors.
    Can anyone help me discover ways to do both of these in Pages? Also, is there anything for Pages like MS Word's macros?
    Thanks in advance,
    Brad Carpenter

    Welcome to the forums, Brad.
    There is no direct analogue in Pages to Word's highlighting feature. However, you can use the Comments feature to add specific comments to a specific piece of text (with the advantage that the comments can be easily hidden, since you are not changing the characteristics of the actual text). Simply select a bit of text and click the Comment icon in the toolbar, or from the Insert menu select "Comment". The selected text will highlight in document, and a comments box will appear to the left of the page, in which you can type whatever you want. In the comments box you can select whatever text you want and make it a hyperlink, by going to the Hyperlink Inspector. Unfortunately, there is not an easy way to automate the creation of a hyperlink, at least as far as I know.
    There are plenty of third-party applications that will let you store and add snippets of text easily to any Mac document, including Pages. These include TypeIt4Me, Butler, and even Quicksilver, which has a fanatical following and may be more than you need for this kind of task. I'm sure others here might be able to suggest other apps.
    One caution, however: If you intend to be sharing documents with others, they must be using Pages themselves to take advantage of these features. Unless your students are also using Pages, these workarounds won't really help.

  • How can I stop shared files in iBooks being highlighted by different family members?

    I Have family sharing set up which is great for sharing apps and music however I have a problem with iBooks. My wife and I both use ePub files which a re study material. The great thing about these is that we can highlight and add notes to files.
    THe problem is that our individual highlights and notes are shared with each other. So I get my wife's highlights and notes on top of mine.
    We ha ve tried clearing all ePub files from my wife's ipad, and only syncing them to mine. She then downloads her own copy of the ePub file. So one has the original which is on our iMac and one has another copy. This makes no difference as iTunes recognises them as the same file.
    We'd be happy to switch off family sharing for iBooks to prevent this but that doesn't seem possible. It's all or nothing. I can't turn off family sharing completely as my wife will lose access to our shared music library.
    Does oes anyone have any suggestions? Basically, we want to share music and apps through family sharing but have a separate collection of books even though those books might be ide bridal before we annotate them.

    Have you tried going into the Preferences on iBooks on your Mac and unchecking the option for syncing across devices?

  • In previous versions of i Tunes you could highlight a song in your library and there would be a genious list on the right side of the screen showing songs like the one highlighted in the library. Now I do not get that list. Is there a way to get this back

    In previous versions of i Tunes I could highlight a song in my library and a genious list would show on the right side of the screen listing songs that were like the one highlighted. Now I do not get that list. Is there a way to get that back?

    Hi again Bob,
    I believe I've found the feature you were speaking about now. Information on the "In the Store" feature of iTunes can be found here:
    Apple - iTunes - Inside iTunes - Using In the Store from within your iTunes Library.
    http://www.apple.com/itunes/inside-itunes/2013/01/using-in-the-store-from-within -your-itunes-library.html
    Thanks for using the Apple Support Communities. Have a good one!

  • Is there a way in Pages to show and print all the added "comments?" (those you add by highlighting text)  I'd like students to be able to view my comments on printed version of their papers.

    Is there a way in Pages to show and print all the added "comments?" (those you add by highlighting text)  I am a teacher, and I would  like students to be able to view my comments on printed versions of their papers. I know word displays the comments off to the side of the document, and those comments can be viewed all at once and printed alongside the document.

    There doesn't appear to be a way to print conmments in either Pages or Numbers in the Mavericks versions.

  • Why cant I highlight part of a document and print only what is selected in safari?

    Why is it not possible to highlight and print the selection in Safari, thought the imac was supposed to do everything,  WRONG.
    I also have I.pad 2 and because it does not support adobe flash, I cannot open a magazine that I have each week, I have to do this on the imac, so when away from home it again doesnt do what I want it to.  Does everything people say.  WRONG AGAIN.
    Should have stuck with the laptop, it actually does do these things mentioned above.

    I purchased the iPad first and waited a year HOPING Apple would fix this problem OR at the least provide something comparable to WINDOWS!
    WRONG....and yes it is hard to believe for how ADVANCED Apple is.....that they don't have a simple easy program that allows you to HIGHLIGHT and PRINT ONLY what you highlight!
    But....they are making leaps and bounds.....at least you can now cut & paste....thats a good thing!?
    HOPEFULLY.......in the VERY,VERY NEAR FUTURE Apple will supply us with the simple software to do these simple time saving chores!
    (highlight and print ONLY what you highlight)
    Until then we have to cut and paste to several different apps or programs....hoping it will allow you to print ONLY WHAT THE USER WANTS TO PRINT!

  • Highlighting multiple days in Month View?

    Hello everyone & Happy Friday All !!!
    I'm new to this forum, and VERY new to using ical -
    Here's my question:
    In my old method of using a calendar to do my schedule on my old PC -
    I'd make a spreadsheet in MS Excel that would show me monthly views that I could highlight days,
    weeks or entire months..... It's crude in comparison to ical, yet it IS effective for my needs......
    I am used to highlighting either a single day or a string of days in my "month" view,
    so... for example - let's say that Monday thru Thursday of next week I am going to be "out of the office in London - UK" -
    I would simply highlight the four days of next week - and instead of leaving those cells "white"
    like every other day in the month - I'd change those four cell's colored "fill" option from white to
    bright yellow - (or any other color that signifies a specific action or function - like "green" for vacation days, or "blue" for a sick day or surgery, etc....
    This way - that at a glance (literally) - I can tell that I'm "out of the office" on those days next week that are colored other than "white"..... NOTE: the ENTIRE CELL - Not Just the Day Title is colored......
    (I wish I could insert a visual example of what I am trying to describe here...)
    Is there a way of doing this same kind of function in ical - so that I can have an "at a glance" or
    "heads up display" that I can see quickly and know I'm committed on those days next week - or
    any week or group of days for that matter?
    This would help me tremendously of there is a way of doing this...... Otherwise - I'll be STUCK
    in the 90's using my improvised Excel Spreadsheet Calendar.....
    Thanks in advance for your help
    kevin

    Welcome to the discussions, azstoneconsulting.
    In iCal colours are tied to specific calendars, so make a vacation calendar and a sick calendar (you forecast your sickness? Cool) and an out of office calendar and set the colours to whatever colour suits. Then when you are going to be in London select the out of office calendar and set it to last the four days. It will show as a coloured bar across those days in month view.

  • I would like to propose sites when i type a letter in the addressbar WITHOUT highlighting it, help me ?

    Hello :)
    I am very happy when the Firefox browser suggests me sites I have already visited, when I just type one letter in the address bar, but I don't like that this letter gets highlighted in all the suggested urls,
    I'd like Firefox always to offer me these suggestions, but if possible without highlighting the letter I type, and I don't know if I can (or how to if I can) change the settings of my browser to be so,
    Can you please help me with that?
    Thanks in advance :)

    The involved CSS code can be found in this file that you can open via the location bar.
    * chrome://global/skin/autocomplete.css
    Look for class .ac-emphasize-text and apply modified rules as you like.
    You need to add the !important flag to override rules.
    Add code to the <b>userChrome.css</b> file below the default @namespace line.
    *http://kb.mozillazine.org/userChrome.css
    <pre><nowiki>@namespace url("http://www.mozilla.org/keymaster/gatekeeper/there.is.only.xul"); /* only needed once */

    * Create the chrome folder (lowercase) in the <xxxxxxxx>.default profile folder if this folder doesn't exist
    * Use a plain text editor like Notepad to create a (new) userChrome.css file in this folder (the names are case sensitive)
    * Paste the code in the userChrome.css file in the editor window and make sure that the userChrome.css file starts with the default @namespace line
    * Make sure that you select "All files" and not "Text files" when you save the file via "Save file as" in the text editor as userChrome.css. Otherwise Windows may add a hidden .txt file extension and you end up with a not working userChrome.css.txt file

  • How can I highlight more than one pic at a time?

    First of all, THANKS for anyone that may answer since APPLE obviously has no desire to get off their ***** and help their customers.
    About ten days ago I was prompted to install apples new operating system. So of course I clicked OK, idiot that I am!
    Now I'm stuck with this new piece of **** operating system that I wish I could uninstall.
    ANYWAY,
    I upload a lot of pix for stuff I sell on EBay, sometimes 3-400 at a time. When I delete photos it's usually 1,000 at a time, and I assure you I'm not exaggerating. Up until now I was able to touch the END pic and swipe the whole horizontal row with two fingertips and the whole row of 7 would get checked. With the new ios7 I am unable to do it anymore (yet ANOTHER reason I don't want this 'improved' OS).
    Does ANYONE know of a way to highlight more than one pic at a time?? Remember the old windows system where you could click one pic, then hit SHIFT and click a lower one and it would highlight them all, in between, for a quick delete?
    There MUST be a way to delete, or rather highlight (or CHECK) more than one pic at a time? Anyone?
    THANKS, Rich

    Yes, I know the photos stored on the device... But which app are you accessing the photos with? Which app do you want to be able to highlight more than one pic at a time in?
    There are literally thosands of apps that access the iOS Photo Library - which one(s) are you using?

  • What is the shortcut key to highlight words in adobe reader in macbook pro

    what is the shortcut key to highlight words in adobe reader in macbook pro?
    Shift + U is not working
    how can i change shortcut key?

    I don't believe there is a keyboard shortcut available for that feature. But I believe if you click-select the topmost chapter, and Shift-click the bottommost chapter, it should select them all.
    Other shortcuts for books can be set up in Edit > Keyboard Shortcuts in the Panel Menus product area. There are no default shortcuts in that area.

  • How to disable highlighting in Crystal Reports 2008

    Hi,
    does anyone know how I can disable highlighting of fields when using the .NET 2.0 CrystalReportViewer 2008?
    See as example: http://i31.tinypic.com/30ivshs.png
    The problem is, that the highlighting is meaningless and thus confusing, and additional to that it also leaves lightgray artifacts (background of the field9 on the screen after highlighting. The latter problem is not happening on every configuration though, probably related to color settings.
    Regards,
    Florian

    I do not see this highlighting in my reports, unless I design them to be as such. Questions and a suggestion:
    Do you see this highlighting in the CR designer?
    Is this a web or a win app?
    Download SP 2 for CR 2008 (12.x) and see if this helps. SP 2 is here:

  • Syntax highlighting not working with label on if statement in fortran in Visual studio 2010

    I am having a difficult time in figuring out the syntax highlighting in Visual studio. I am using fortran code and there are labels in if statements as follows: 
                if_2003: IF (FRAC_PBED(NNSED,L).LT.0.0.AND.
         +                   FRAC_PBED(NNSED,L).GT.SMALL_NEG_NO) THEN
                  FRAC_PBED(NNSED,L) = 0.0
           TSED_PBED(1,NNSED,L) = 0.0
         END IF if_2003
    So the problem I am having is when I click on the `if` next to label `if_2003`, then I cannot use `CTRL + ]` to move to the ending `if`. If there is no label before `if`, then the shortcut is working fine. I don't know what I could do so that it would start
    behaving as it is supposed to. 
    In the contrary, when I have do loop as follows: 
        do_410: DO NNSED=1,NSTD
             D50AVG(L) = D50AVG(L) + 
             +                 FRAC_ALAY_SURF(NNSED,L)*D50(NNSED)/10000.  ! BASED ON BED COMPOSITION
        C
             TSED_ALAY_SURF(2,NNSED,L)=TSED_ALAY_SURF(1,NNSED,L)
             TSED_ALAY_BUFF(2,NNSED,L)=TSED_ALAY_BUFF(1,NNSED,L)
             TSED_PBED(2,NNSED,L)=TSED_PBED(1,NNSED,L)
                  END DO do_410
    I can move to the end/start of `do` loop using the keyboard shortcut `CTRL + ]`. Any suggestions is appreciated.

    Hello Jdbaba,
    Based on my research, your post is related to use fortran in Visual Studio:https://software.intel.com/en-us/articles/intel-math-kernel-library-intel-mkl-for-windows-build-intel-mkl-program-with-intel-fortran-in-microsoft-visual-studio This
