Problem

When using the Highlight tool, your markup is opaque and conceals the drawing or text.

Solution

Try each solution in order.

Adjust Highlight properties:

1. Select the Highlight markup. A blue dotted outline will appear around the highlight when selected.
2. Navigate to the Properties (Alt+P) panel.
3. Under Appearance, you can edit the color and opacity of the highlight to make the content underneath more visible.
   
4. To save these properties, select Set as Default under Options.
   

Enable Blend Modes

If adjusting Highlight properties didn’t resolve the problem:

1. Go to Revu > Preferences (Ctrl+K).
2. In the sidebar, select Advanced and then 2D Rendering.
3. Select the Blend Modes check box.
4. Click OK. 

Use the highlight tool again to ensure the problem is fixed.
