Hullo,

The title might sound pointless, but, sometimes one might want to edit on an ereader and then view those edits on a color device.

I have just started using the calibre server to highlight books on my ereader which is great. The issue I have is that I like to color code different bits of information for when I go back to the book on my computer, but the ereader is black and white and I keep messing it up.

I was wondering if it would be possible to have the option of some indicator of the highlighting color in the pop up when on black and white devices. I.e. a little y in the centre of the yellow box, b in the blue etcetera.

Thanks for your consideration,
