What is it?

No click highlighting is a Google Docs Addon. It provides a method to highlight text with the least amount of clicks.

Usage

  1. Install the addon from the Google Addon Store. Google docs menu: AddOns -> Get Addons.
  2. Once installed, open the tool. Google docs menu: AddOns -> No Click Highlighter -> Show Tool.
  3. Choose a color by sliding the little box to the left or right.
  4. Press the Start Highlighter button. Then any selected text in the document will be highlighted. There is a slight delay and can take a while to get used to.
  5. Press the same button now called Stop Highlighter at anytime to stop the automatic highlighting of selected text

Why?

Having to continuously click the toolbar to highlight text is a pain. This addon is not perfect. Google addon's are very limited in what they have access to.
