All of a sudden all of the "o"s in the entry I am checking is highlighted yellow. Does anyone know what I may have it to cause this?

    Interesting, would you be able to post the batch code or URL link where the issue is located.

    On the left side of my screen where the directions are, I am all of a sudden getting all "o"s highlighted yellow. I must have hit a key to get that but have no idea how to get rid of it. Any suggestions.

    Ctrl + F> o? It sounds like some keystrokes were pressed to Find 'o's?

    It is actually on the left side of the screen where it has Image 1 of 1 and and Project Instructions at the bottom of that box. The o's in Project Instructions are the ones highlighted. It is on all projects I pull up. So not actually on the images but in the instruction box.

    Maybe post a screenshot? Ctrl + F (on Windows OS) will find whatever is typed - so it still could be the browser find in page function. If you close the Find (or press Esc) - if you see it open - that should remove the highlight.

    I am not seeing this on my batch. Perhaps resetting your cookies would help? familysearch.org/cookies and say yes to reset FamilySearch cookies.

    If you would provide a Shared Batch code, found at the end of your project name, [M***-***] we could look at your particular batch.

    You may have hit ctrl+f. I do that sometimes and it looks like this. Hit ctrl+f and see what happens. :)

    Interesting because the note you sent back to me has all of the "o"s highlighted. I guess it will just keep me in a happy bright mood. It must be something I hit in the program. Thank you.

    Yep. That is what mine looks like. I tried the Ctrl+f and nothing changed.

    I am not that smart at the computer so I don't know how to find the browser find in page function. Maybe one of my kids or grandkids can figure it out. I probably ought to get a 3 year old over to my home and they would figure it out.😜

    So when I hit ctrl+f a box comes up at the top of my web page.

    Try hitting ctrl + f and then hitting the backspace. Maybe you can't see the box, but it will be selected and clear the highlights.

    Thank you. It doesn't seem to be there now. I will see if it comes back. Thanks for your help.
