Erase Annotation

Does anyone know how to remove a single a single annotation without scrolling through a whole note file. The erase option deletes all highlighting in the paragraph. Thanks

I don't think I quite follow. Can you give a screen shot? Do you have multiple highlights overlapping?

Yes, sorry, there are highlights overlapping. I have certain annotations applied yo whole paragraphs and when I want to remove the annotation on a single word it deletes everything. I can delete the individual annotation but it involves scrolling through a large file of notes.

I don't think there is a good way to do what you want. Perhaps on mobile. If your highlight note had a note indicator, it would be easier to get to... but that doesn't help you. [:s]

Oh well, thanks anyway. If scrolling was less clumsy on the MAC it might help.

Well, maybe I was wrong.
When you right click, make sure that the selection tab is selected (upper right corner). Then click "open annotation" on the left side. You might have to do it twice if the note document isn't open. Also, make sure you aren't in quote view but in "full" view. See if that helps.

Orthodox Bishop Alfeyev: "To be a theologian means to have experience of a personal encounter with God through prayer and worship."; Orthodox proverb: "We know where the Church is, we do not know where it is not."

It seems that just brings up the larger annotation for the whole paragraph. Thanks though.
