Multi Find: Search, Highlight, Scroll
Multi Find is a Chrome add-on that allows users to find and highlight multiple words on webpages. With this tool, you can easily search for specific fragments, words, or phrases within any webpage. The interface is intuitive and customizable, making it easy to use.
One of the standout features of Multi Find is its Unicode-friendly nature. It can handle non-English characters, such as Chinese or Japanese, as well as special symbols. Additionally, you have the option to turn on or off case or diacritic sensitiveness. This add-on works seamlessly with iframes and dynamically loaded content, making it versatile for use on various webpages, including blogs and forums.
The input box in Multi Find is formatted exactly like the result of the highlighting, ensuring that what you see in the input box is what you get on the webpage. The highlights themselves are colorful and can vary in shape depending on the type of match you select, such as exact, beginning, containing, or ending match.
Multi Find offers multiple ways to fill the input box, including typing directly into it, copying and pasting, or selecting a word on the webpage and using the contextual menu. It also remembers the list of words across different tabs, browser windows, and future sessions without storing anything in the cloud (local storage only). The add-on conveniently displays the number of occurrences for each searched word and the total count, and provides navigation buttons to scroll through the occurrences of highlighted words. Additionally, you can choose to show or hide scrollbar marks to easily locate the highlighted words within the page. The interface can be further customized through persistent option settings.
Overall, Multi Find is a useful tool for anyone who needs to find and highlight multiple words on webpages. Its intuitive interface, customizable features, and support for non-English characters make it a valuable add-on for Chrome users.
