Quick clearing of highlights #4

Closed alexolog closed 4 years ago

alexolog commented 4 years ago

Currently I use persistent highlights since clicking on the page closes the popup box. That means that in order to clear the highlights I need to open the box, select the contents and delete them, which is uncomfortable on a laptop without a mouse. ESC key management does not seem to work as intended on FF.

My habit is using CTRL-A and type new keywords. This is a universal way to select things. However CTRL-A doesn't work for this extension (yet).

Update: CTRL-A works. (but yesterday it didn't. maybe there's something I missed...)

There is a new keyboard command to clear the highlights without the need to open the interface. Set a combination from the add-ons manager window of your browser.
