⌨keyup manual-Highlight💡: Highlight keywords from keyup-event shortcut key

[dnknn]

💡PLEASE NOTE: This will be a brand new feature, different from the current highlighting logic. because it won't go into the list of user rules! (Has nothing to do with user rules)

• First of all, please install this script test first, and you can basically understand it completely.

  1. getSelection().toString().trim()
  2. ⌨ keyup G to highlight.
  3. enjoy.
  4. exit-highlight : Esc or G(only when !getSelection().toString().trim() and has highlighted)

---

This script is more simple one-time manual temporary highlighting, but it lacks the function of the right map of AutoHighlight.

So, whether AutoHighlight can also have this function? users can customize a shortcut key.

Hello,
Could you describe the feature with words? :)
Is that suppose to highlight what is selected after pressing some key?

I'm open to improvements but I'm very busy with my other addons right now so I don't have much time experiment :).

sorry for my English.....

Is that suppose to highlight what is selected after pressing some key?

Yes! but has no association with user rules, will not be saved to user rules.

There are many application scenarios for this feature, e.g. Just want to find the same highlighted words, Or similar to the highlight search of code variables.

That is to say, this feature is instant and one-time. The main difference is: when there is no need to create automatic highlighting rules for keywords, this feature can be perfectly satisfied at this time, and the operation is simple and convenient.

And all the features of AutoHighlight extension, are based on user rules for manually added keywords (whether temporary or permanent), When the page is opened, these rules are automatically applied for highlighting.

But obviously, we often only need a one-time simple operation to temporarily highlight.
