Reviews of multi highlight:
Good extension. But how to use it on a local html file?
This is one of the bests highlighter extension - simple to use yet powerful. There are two other that are worth checking - they are more powerful: Highlight This: finds and marks words https://chrome.google.com/webstore/detail/highlight-this-finds-and/fgmbnmjmbjenlhbefngfibmjkpbcljaj and Auto Highlight https://chrome.google.com/webstore/detail/auto-highlight/ndndibnggapaodjdfoeehgmmpppedgfb
(Browser: Google Chrome on Windows 10) It does the job and highlights things, nice and brightly! Unfortunately, enabling "Auto-Rehighligh" (sp) causes web pages to load very slowly, incompletely, and/or not at all. This is especially noticeable on sites like Zendesk, YouTube, and YouTube Music. Having to manually refresh on every page is sadly a dealbreaker, as my team was hoping to use this to help out with our ticketing systems. The extension would also greatly benefit from being able to choose your own colors, and it would also be fantastic if colors were to show up on the scroll bar like when searching with ctrl+f :) If the first issue were resolved, this would be an easy 4 or 5 star. Definitely a 5 with all three!
