Is there a way?

Dwayne Justice

This may sound pathetic, but my tastes are not like most other people's. What I am wanting to do is get rid of the highlighted word within a text from where I used the search function. Since that is not a very clear explanation let me give an example. Let's say I run a search for Ante-Nicene. I see a resource I want to peruse so I click on it. I read for a few minutes and then go back to the search page and select another source. As I am reading these various resources I have open, the highlights distract me. I want to be able to read through my text and not have my eyes diverted by the highlight. Additionally, if I have searched for several different items, i.e. Church Fathers, Ante-Nicene, Jerome, Patristic era, Eusebius, etc. etc. then there are going to be several highlights within the resource. This is where it gets really distracting and annoying. I know that is a long explanation and introduction just to ask a question, and I apologize. However, I did not want to leave any questions as to what I meant as to get the best possible answer to my question. My question is: Is there a way to get rid of the highlights once I have the area I want to read in, without closing the search page so I can go back to it to select other resources without having to do the search again? Thank you!

No, that's not possible, sorry.

As Mark indicated, there is no direct way to do this (although I agree with you that it is annoying). Here is a little trick you may use if you find it helpful:

1. Do a different search in a resource you won't need for the search you are really interested in.
2. Then do the search you really want and click on a result to read in it.
3. Use the search history arrow to toggle back to the first search, effectively removing highlights while you are reading.
4. Use the search history arrow to toggle back to the second search to access other resources you want to read, and repeat step 3-4 as necessary.

The search history button is here:
