Hi,

You can delete the highlight by following these steps:

1. Click on show/hide navigation panel icon (last icon shown in image).

2. Select the second button, i.e. list of bookmarks.

3. Select the highlight entry you wish to delete.

4. Click on the setting icon and then on "Delete Selected"

Thanks!

But that method only removes the bookmark; it does not remove the yellow

highlighting on the page.

I want to know how to remove the yellow highlighting.

Did you find out how to remove the yellow I am using a mac and even if I highlight the text and then go to the bookmark there is no option to delete?

Hi,

Which version of ADE are you using?

Can you confirm that you selected the correct highlight from the list and then clicked on "Delete Highlight" option?

Can you share a screenshot of the navigation panel?

Using ADE v.4.5.4 - This solution works. It's not that intuitive. A simple undo or an extra line in the menu item would have been a more logical way to do this. As it currently stands, you can highlight the same item a dozen times and you have delete each item. I suggest that this be sent up as a feature request, since it is likely working as designed... it's just not a logical design for the end-user.

By the way, this question IS ANSWERED. I tried out the method myself and I've only been using the product for a matter of days.

Cheers

Jim
