Text dosen't get highlighted in combination with >Highlight This< extension!

[Dean-Corso]

Hi,

so there is a problem when using Reader-View Extension/AddOn with the >Highlight This< Extension/AddOn and the highlighted words by >Highlight This< is no more highlighted when I enable the Reader-View and thats pretty bad of course.Just wanna request whether you could check & fix this problem to take over the highlights from the HT extension into your view.Just check this out please.

I also tried out other viewer extensions and just found one called "Best Reader View" what keeps the highlights from the HT extension and your extension should also do it.

Best Reader View: https://chrome.google.com/webstore/detail/best-reader-view/ooppcohacjcoekjgiajkkjgepofncbdl Highlight This: https://chrome.google.com/webstore/detail/highlight-this-finds-and/fgmbnmjmbjenlhbefngfibmjkpbcljaj https://addons.mozilla.org/en-US/firefox/addon/highlightthis https://highlightthis.net/

In case of using the "Best Reader View" extension I have mostly to enable the view twice before the highlighted words from entire text gets also highlighted in the Best Reader View.In case of using your Reader-View AddOn/Extension nohting gets or keeps highlighted.Not sure why but it seems your view does disable all other extensions the access on your viewer site.Your extension is a good one no question but I need to use it with the HT together.Without the highlights I have still to use the Best Reader View extension instead.

Since this extension uses an internal page, other extensions cannot interact with the view. Anyhow this is part of the cleanup to remove styled elements.

Workaround: Since the "em" element is still in the view, add the following CSS code to the "Custom Styling (reader view)" section of the options page to have the highlight back.

em[loopnumber] {
  background: rgb(255, 255, 102);
}

Hi rNeomy,

thank you very much for posting that workaround information.So I did not seen that I also could add own CSS styles.Now it works to see everything highlighted what the HT extension did highlight.Just great.I also changed the font-style from italic to normal what I do prefer.

em[loopnumber] {
  background: rgb(255, 255, 102);
  font-style: normal;
}

All working now as I wished.Thank you.

Hi again rNeomy,

just have another question about your AddOn version for Firefox. I don't find any options menu entry to open and to enter any custom styles as I can do in your Chrome version. How is it working now in your Firefox AddOn version? I would like to make the Highlight This AddOn work with your AddOn in Firefox but how is the question. Maybe you can help here too.

Firefox is using a internal Reader View tool but also this is not showing any highlighted words. Don't know how to make it work. Thanks.
