Semi on topic: how does this "top highlight" work? I select sentences and paragraphs while reading as a marker - but it's unrelated to the content, it's to track where I am. Do other people only select text they find important or so?
- douche 10y agoIf you select a chunk of text, a tooltip pops up and one of the options there, is some kind of icon that vaguely looks like a highlighter and has the CSS class 'svgIcon--highlighter'. I assume clicking that registers as a highlight?
- avian 10y agoThis post explains it. It's related to Medium's "Highlight" feature, not the ordinary text selection: https://blog.medium.com/introducing-highlights-a4df69e8ed43 https://blog.medium.com/introducing-highlights-a4df69e8ed43
- WA 10y ago> but it's unrelated to the content, it's to track where I am If you're reading a lot of stuff on Medium, you stop this behavior after a while, because the tooltip is too annoying. But generally speaking: No, you're not alone with this.
