rccathy 1 Posted May 27, 2014 Share Posted May 27, 2014 Is there a feature in evernote where in you can PERMANENTLY highlight words or phrases?So that the next time you type a word on Evernote, it will immediately highlight itself? Thanks Link to comment
rccathy 1 Posted May 27, 2014 Author Share Posted May 27, 2014 I hope for Evernote to add up such feature. Its very useful for our job and can save time rather than manually highlighting repeated (important) words. Link to comment
Level 5* gazumped 10,332 Posted May 27, 2014 Level 5* Share Posted May 27, 2014 Can you explain a little more why you would need such a feature? Is there any software out there that gives you the same functionality? Link to comment

Thanks for asking... Our job requires us to to go through terms and conditions for certain sites. It really can be a struggle to read and check for essentials. Its a good thing there is Vocabulary Highlighter; we just add up words there and everytime we go through a site, it automatically highlights and so its easier for us to see the most vital words and phrases for us, saving an ample amount of time. I wish in Evernote there could be something similar. So that the next time we would add up shortened terms on Evernote, important words would just automatically highlight itself without having to manually do it. Link to comment
SebR 146 Posted May 28, 2014 Share Posted May 28, 2014 Find a workaround for Webclipper Use a multihighlight addon then clip the page. I tested only with https://chrome.google.com/webstore/detail/multi-highlight/pfgfgjlejbbpfmcfjhdmikihihddeeji/related for chrome, it worked fine (and the terms are stored) Link to comment

Thanks - I think it helps the Evernote Devs if they have some context for a use case (the poor things probably don't get out much) and I was intrigued; it sounded like a feature that I would like, but I couldn't think how to use it.. now I have some more ideas. One similar thing I do is to analyse (insurance) contract wordings and I can see that highlighting some key words would point me to the bits of the text that I need to look at first. It would give me a different perspective at least which would be very useful. Point now Evernoted - thanks! Link to comment
