Here’s a small request which I’ve had for a long time:
Would it be possible for the user to determine their own palette of highlight colors?
I don’t know about you guys but I for one find the built in colors much too bright and garish to use (does anyone find them attractive?) The work around of course is to use the background feature of the colors palette to save and apply more subtle and muted colors to mark up documents but this means having to forgo the menu shortcut/dedicated button and apply a number of ‘attention breaking’ extra keystrokes and mouse clicks…
thank you for the suggestion. Used-defined highlighting colors are actually planned for one of the next releases, probably DT Pro 1.1 and DT Personal 1.9.x.
Apologies for necromancing a very old thread - but was curious as to whether this was ever done, and is subsequently an option buried somewhere?
I use the highlighting option extensively, but am finding that certain of the “primary” colours [in particular Red; Blue & Purple - and to a lesser extent, Yellow] are simply too bright/“strong”…
Highlighting text with the above colours, especially in pdf’s that are older (and therefore scanned from the original articles) - results in the underlying text being badly obscured - to the point where I need to re-select the highlighting, and undo it, to be able to properly read what had been highlighted…
Were we able to “tone-down” the colours a tad, it would be very useful - as currently, I am left with significantly less options to choose from, colour-wise…
Know that feeling all to well - I’ve bought the manual (and actually read it ), had a look at the tutorials - but still keep discovering things I either missed, or never realised were important - such as this one… This is going to make things so much easier - took a little bit of time renaming both labels and highlighter names - which will allow for improved visual organisation… But of course, this now means sorting out the “incorrectly” highlighted/labelled docs done before today.
