JWLibrary needs an undo button.

[Br. Ice]

It is so frustrating, you are highlighting comments in the WT and you make a wrong move and the whole article is suddenly highlighted.

And there isn't a button to undo it.

Has this ever happened to you?
Is there something you can do about it?
Is there an undo button that I might not know of?


Really hope one of the future updates brings such an option.

Not sure if this will help:

 

This is what I see when I go to highlight

 

I select a color and it is highlighted

 

Now, if I want to turn the highlight off I simply click on the highlighted text

 

 

If I select the trashcan it turns the highlight back off

This sure is a good reminder.

 

The situation I'm referring to is where you highlighted this:

 

Next, you make a bad move and the whole paragraph/article gets highlighted by mistake: 

 

As far as I know there isn't a way to just undo it, and get the result of the first picture back. You would need to delete the entire highlighted paragraph and do it all over again. 😤😣

 

Just to be clear, if I have to do it over for 1 paragraph I really don't mind. But if I make a mistake and it covers the whole article, that is when I really feel the need for the undo button.

Now that you explained it - you are right ... as far as I know there is no way to get back highlights you cover up with a new color (or even the same color) if you actually highlight over something already highlighted

 

An undo button would be nice.

Yes. Last night I was adding a highlight after I had finished studying for the CBS, the entire lesson highlighted and when I deleted it, i lost all of my highlights.

 

WHQ, we really need an Undo button in JWL....

A year old thread becomes much more important when it happens to you personally...😀❤️

Even "<CRTL> Z" does not work inside JWL

Now we have to wait for it to happen to GB members and helpers for them to say: "We need an undo button asap." 😂

Not the highlights alone but the notes connected to the marked text, too. I backup my study project every week. So I can restore my highlights and comments no later than some days.

John, sorry for hijacking this conversation, but this is the closest topic I could find to my question:

I know there must be a way to "undo" it when I've downloaded a Broadcast in 240 and really want to "delete" it so that I can download it in a higher resolution--like 720p instead.

I just can't find a way to do it. Do you know how?

[Qapla]

If you look at the video thumbnail is should look something like this

See the three little dots in the upper right of the thumbnail

if you click on those three dots, you should see a menu like this

 

 

Clicking on "Delete" should delete the video and allow you to d/l the video again

Thank you! Thank you!!!!
