Highlighting Problem

P

PT

I used a yellow highlighting pen to mark certain sections of a screen
clipping. Now, if I move the screen clipping, the highlights stay put. How
can I anchor them to the screen clipping?

This may not help recover the highlighting you've already done, but for
future reference, use the highlighter found on the Formatting Toolbar, not
the pen highlighter found among the other Pen tools on the Standard
Toolbar. I know it's confusing to have two tools with the same name.

You might be able to move the highlighting en mass by dragging it on top of
the screen clipping. You may need to Ctrl-click on several instances of
your highlighting to move them all at once.

You may also try this:
1. Switch to typing/selection mode
2. Click and drag out the selection rectangle to surround both the screen
clipping and the highlights on it entirely.
3. Now you have all of them selected so you can move them as one piece.
