Reviewing Highlights and Notes
Thuze makes it easy to refer to the notations you've made in your text.
Notations tab:
You can view all of your highlights and notes by clicking on the notations tab in the contents drop down of the top navigation bar, from here you can quickly navigate to the location in the text where you created the highlight and note.
The Notebook:
The notebook is a place where you can review, manage, and edit all of the highlight and notes you create within the text. It serves as a study tool that helps you focus on the content that you need to remember. From the notebook you can edit, share, delete, filter, and change the color of your annotations.
To launch your notebook:
- Click the notebook button on the footer of the reader.
- Click the note icon and the edit options will be available via a toolbar menu.
The filtering function at the top of the notebook, allows you to view only the color and type of annotation you wish to review. All of your highlights and notes will appear by default, but if you only wanted to see your orange notes, for example, deselect your green and blue note buttons, and all of your highlight buttons. Re-select to bring them back into view.
You can collapse sections that aren't important to review at this time by clicking or tapping on the arrow icon to the left of the Chapter or Section title. The back arrow to the right of the highlight or note lets you navigate to the place in the text where you created the annotation.
