Highlighting in dttg (easier way)?

I use DTTG a lot for reading and highlighting text. I like the current features. But sometimes I want just to read and highlight, and do not need other features. Currently, each time when I select a text, the contextual menu is opened and I have to select the highlight button. Is it also possible to automatically highlight each time when a new text is selected (without additionally opening the context menu and having to interact there)

This is not the only option available and it’s certainly not the most efficient.
When viewing the PDF, you should press the Edit button, then tap the Highlight Text button. This allows you to interactively select text and apply the highlight.

thank you so much, after so many years with DTTG I was not aware of this other workflow!

You’re welcome.
