de Der Highlighter funktioniert nicht mehr. Ich habe ihn von der Leiste als gepinnt kurz entfernt. Als ich ihn wieder angepinnt habe, ging gar nichts mehr.

en I've enjoyed this addon for months. I switched to this from another highlighter addon as this one would actually save the highlights in a more reliable manner. Recently it's stopped working though; my old highlights are still there, but if I try to make any new ones they disappear when I refresh the page. Hopefully this will be fixed as I've found this addon very helpful. I'm using it on the edge browser.

en Hello, dear Highlighter developer! Developer request: I want the mini lines to be displayed on the right side of the screen (on the scroll bar) as if you press Ctrl+F and see yellow lines where the found words are, just like I want for the highlighted words on the page. The colored lines will be the same color as the highlighted word. This way, when highlighting words, I will have a complete picture of the highlighted words at a glance and easily perform naivgation on the page to the desired highlighted word. Thank you for your work! And thank you for your attention!
