BUG and feature request for labels

Could you please fix the display of labels so that they are shown on top of highlights? Right now highlights are on top of the blue label capsules, making them difficult to see.

Also, I would find it very helpful if an option could be added to the right-click menu in the highlighting pane. It could be named something like "Find all instances" and would populate the search box with the appropriate syntax to find all instances of a label in all resources.

    Could you attach a screen shot of the label highlight definition - you have to manage potentially overlays of highlights manually. It may be that you would solve the problem by making the label/bubble appear above the text.

    Hi MJ, here's a screenshot of the label definition. Very simple, just the capsule option clicked. The label is applied by a visual filter, also below. However, applying the label any other way also puts it behind the highlight. It doesn't matter the order: highlight first, label second still puts the label underneath the highlight.

    In my opinion, highlights should always be in the background of the display order.

    1. Use a wide underline rather than the highlight
    2. Use a very light shade of highlight

    If neither of those give satisfactory results, come back and I'll give you some other options.
