  • How can I put a sticky note on a whole block of text, then other sticky notes on separate words within that block? It is possible, but when you have done it, the display appears very strange, and the highlight tends to turn off as soon as it gets to the part you have already highlighted. (I use the latest version of FF)
  
  
  • Is there anyway of changing which part of a webpage a sticky note is attached to? Can I detach a sticky note from its highlight, then reattach it to another highlight?>
  
  

  
  
  I hope that makes sense...

  I don't know about the second question, but as to the first, I think I can help. Warning: I have not yet tried this with sticky notes, merely clipping text. You have to highlight and clip the smaller sections (inside the bigger section) first. After that, you just highlight the whole block. When you go to your my bookmarks page, you will see it as two separate clippings. Very useful!
  
  Now that I think of it, if nothing else, you should be able to add sticky notes separately from your my bookmarks page. Or you can try adding the sticky note to the small bit before clipping the large bit and seeing if that works as well.

    yes, this is not easy to do now. I suggest you to use "floating" sticky notes sometime.
