--- Comment #3 from tcanabr...@kde.org --- Please use search for markers I understand and agree that this is a bug that needs to be fixed, but don’t use text selection to mark the spot where you are. Text search is better suited for that - or, we can create a way to actually use text markers with different colors in the future.
