[SOLVED]Why doesn't Zim have the highlight text feature?
Well the title says it all 
I need to use it, and Zim's homepage says the app can do that, so is there a reason why the version in the repos can't?
Edit: Solved: Use Format→Mark

Press Ctrl-F, click the Highlight checkbox, and then type some text in the Find textbox. It works, yes?

I didn't make myself clear I'm sorry. I don't want to highlight text when searching, I want to highlight text like you do in a textbook when you are studying, using a highlighter.
like so

It's on Zim's Format menu, as "Mark". Or press Ctrl-U.

ah! awesome! thank you, the icon used (at least here) is the name as for underline text so I totally missed it.
