Morris Proctor's Tips & Tricks

The Visual Markup Styles do not automatically markup the text for you. You still have to locate and select each occurrence of a word or phrase you want to markup. The Find feature, however, can help you locate the words and phrases. Try the following example:

• Open a Bible to John 15 where Jesus discusses bearing fruit
• Press Crtl + F to open the Find box at the bottom of the Bible
• Type fruit in the Find box
• Press Find Next and you will notice fruit is selected in the Bible
• Now apply your desired Visual Markup Style from the View menu
• Press Find Next again to jump to the next occurrence of fruit

This should save you a lot of time as you move the a passage looking for reoccurring words and phrases.

After you have highlighted (marked up) text in a resource (book) you can easily move through the book stopping at each markup.

• Open a Libronix resource containing multiple mark ups
• From the resource's toolbar click the small black arrow next to the down arrow (Next button)
• From the drop down menu select Markup

This will jump you to the next markup in your book!

Now that you have selected Markup from the drop down menu you can just click the down arrow (Next button) to move to the next markup. You do not have to keep clicking the small black arrow each time.

Try this trick after you have read a book and marked the main points. It is very easy to quickly review your reading with this method.

You can easily remove Visual Markups from the right menu without opening the Visual Markup Styles window.

• Open a resource (book) containing a visual markup
• Select the text in the resource that is highlighted (marked up)
• Right click on the selection
• From the right menu select Remove Visual Markup

To erase multiple markups at once select all of the text containing the markups BEFORE you right click.

Did you know you can highlight text in your e-books just like you do in print volumes? That's right, you can underline, color highlight, circle, or pretty much anything you normally do to mark up a print edition.

This will help you get started:

• Open any Libronix resource (book)
• Choose View | Visual Markup Styles
• With your mouse, select the text in the resource you want to markup
• From the Visual Markup Styles window select a Palette like Highlighter Pens from the drop down list
• Select a Style like Purple

Your selected text should now be highlighted in purple. This text will stay highlighted even after you close the book.

To remove a markup:

• Select the text in the resource that is highlighted
• From the Visual Markup Styles window select Erase Selected Markup
