I see that you have edited your post, you must have found the Check Version into the Setting Menu..

I can agree with the Show All, but I kind of like the Show Anchors Always on. Maybe Add a Setting that could be selected what kind of settings you want to keep?

A toolbar could be done, to have the same settings as the context menu. I will have to go hunting for suitable icons.

Any suggestions?
I kind of understand what you want. But not sure. You want to be able to go to a footnote and go back to the original text. But unlike your previous file (where there was a Anchor for the footnote in the original file, this one does not have it). But what I can't understand is how you want me to fix this?

The program just gets all the id's in the html file, there is no editing of the html file being done, so like you said it might be easier to add them in sigil, because I do not think that adding id's to the html will do a good job. And just searching for the same text will add a lot of possible junk. But maybe I misunderstand what you are talking about.

The html parser I use does not really like nested tags and can very easily screw up the file (there are weird types of file, where calibre adds it's own tags, sigil adds it own, etc.) And for every tag added it considers it a separate line, so duplicating text etc. That is why I used HTML Tidy for the new split chapter function, to have it better formatted and "manually" selected the text, but it is so slow.
