en Works on a very complex research site I use where these things almost never work. This is so helpful now.

Updated review October 2023: Waste to install it. It is not helpful at all. See my original review... Original review: Not impressed. All it does it add a highlighter line. There are zero controls over it. Uninstalling.

It works very well for web pages. Thank you. But can you also make it work for opened PDF files in the browser?

Thank you for being the only extension that provides this incredibly important accessibility feature. I can not believe this is the only plugin that actually works. Even if there is no customization, at least it works.

Just what I needed... A sentence/line highlighter on hover or in this case, just a simple ruler (without config) that tracks my mouse position.
