Thanks for the quick reply. I'll have to explore that module more for
other purposes as well. However, the default highlighting color is blue.
This can be changed, but there is a lot of overhead here to do something
that should probably be in Text Style dialog if all a user wants is
highlighted text without all the PDF hooks.
Perhaps the default color is something to attack in terms of sensible
defaults in the short term and adding highlighting to Text Style is a long
term change?
If you want to discuss this further, let's start another email thread to
keep things compartmentalized and keep this thread on track regarding
inverted cursors. My apologies for diverting it to this degree already.
