Remove Highlight

Excel
Category: Proof-readingBack to Language Check section

Undo Undo support - YES. See general Excel undo notes.

When the worksheet has been processed with Check Translation and checked by a translator, it's time to remove highlights used to mark found cells. This is where Remove Highlight comes in – it removes all highlights of a particular colour (as specified in the Options dialogue below).

Options:

Screenshot: Remove Highlight dialogue

  1. Entire worksheet - select this option if you would like to remove highlights of a chosen color from cells and textboxes on the active worksheet.
  2. Selection - select this one if you want to remove highlights of a chosen color from the selection only. The selection may be a range of cells or a shape / several shapes.
  3. Highlight color - pick a desired colour from the list of predefined colours. If the background colour of a cell or textbox matches the chosen colour, it will be reset to 'No colour / No Fill' (i.e. White / Transparent). This should be the same colour as the one specified in Check Translation options.

Notes:

  • Caution must be taken to select the same colour as the colour used when the document was checked with Check Translation command. Otherwise, it is possible that other highlights (perhaps those made by the original author of the document, which must be left intact) will be removed.
  • Sometimes original background colours (i.e. author's formatting) will be changed to new colours by Check Translation command. To restore the original background colours, consult the original document.
