Highlighting Text

Hi - is there a way to highlight in calibre? I see buttons only on the left side and none of them is for highlight.

I also tried this, to highlight it while reading on kindle:

- added book to calibre from my kindle so as to strip its DRM (installed plugin tools v.4.0)
- sent book to my kindle
- deleted it from calibre library
- opened the calibre book in kindle + highlighted text
- re-added book to calibre library
- went to location but text was not highlighted

When I read the original DRM ebook in kindle + highlight it, then open it on my laptop in KforPC, I see the highlighting there right to the end of the book - although of course in clippings.txt I see it only to the DRM limit.

I prefer to read books in calibre because the scrolling is easier in calibre but I need to see the highlights I made when I was reading it on kindle.

Is there any way to highlight text in an ebook on kindle (that I sent from calibre to kindle) then add it back into calibre and see the highlights?

And is there any way to highlight while reading in calibre?

thanks, Val
