Mouseover Highlighting

Note for Experienced Users The term "Mouseover Highlighting" replaces the feature "Key Highlighting." This change in terminology was made to better reflect the feature which affects any grammatically tagged text as well as texts with Key numbers.

When researching Biblical text, it is helpful to see not only the Key number as displayed in the Instant Details, but to quickly locate the word in the original language text which corresponds with that key number.

This is accomplished in Accordance by enabling Mouseover Highlighting in the Preferences dialog box (Instant Details area). When enabled, passing the cursor over any word in Key numbered or grammatically tagged text highlights that word. In addition, the highlighting crosses over any parallel pane or tied tab with a Key number text or a grammatically tagged text (sometimes called 'crossover highlighting').

Once enabled:

• Certain texts such as the MOUNCE-NT are enhanced with Key Number Phrases. In this case, where a phrase translates a single word, the entire phrase is highlighted in the pane or tied tab, with the main word in a stronger color (see picture below).
• When there are multiple occurrences of the same word in a verse, only the word corresponding in position to the word under the cursor is highlighted.
• If the word under the cursor has no Key number or lemma The canonical (dictionary) form of a word, no words are highlighted in the parallel panes or tied tabs.
• You can change the color of the highlight in the Preferences.
• Highlighting also applies to Dynamic Interlinear display of text.
