Dear Scrivener Team It’s helpful for the editor to display selection highlighting and open to a mid-doc pointer when we redisplay a document we’ve worked on in the past few minutes. Weeks later, it’s a distraction. I’d like a global toggle for the editor to ignore these values, a means of clearing them, and a time limit since the last save or view of the doc, after which the selection will be discarded and the document viewed from the top. Thanks for considering – Jerome --- _[View the full topic](https://forum.literatureandlatte.com/t/time-limit-on-selection-highlighting-and-pointer-within-doc/27198)._
