I regularly underline in the books I read, with ruler and pencil. When it comes to instructions and rules, I underline and highlight. Sorry for this question. Is it possible to highlight a part of a text somewhere in a web page, copy it, paste it somewhere else in a word processor as a quote/hyperlink and when you click on it you end up exactly where the quote is on the web page ?
Search Google for 'chrome copy link to highlight'.
Yea and I use my tool Yawas Highlighter to highlight web pages on my browser or iOS https://www.appblit.com/yawas
Another quirk I've noticed is that I always scroll more than necessary while reading. It feels odd to have the text I've just read sitting at the top of the screen, so I scroll down to get it out of my view. Maybe it's an ergonomic preference; it feels better to look at the top of the screen rather of the lower half (I work on a laptop with no stand). Whenever I am sharing focus on a screen with someone and I notice they are reading all of the visible text on the screen before scrolling, I realize how particular my habit is.
Yes. I usually triple click to select the line/paragraph I'm on. If some site fucks with that setting, I try to disable most of their javascript with the "Absolute Enable Right Click And Copy" add-on's "Absolute Mode" and if that doesn't work I close the site.
