@tmoreno This sounds like it might be a bug, but you have not provided enough information. What Readium code base are you using? The CloudReader? Are you cloning from develop or master? Or somewhere else. What is the goal. Readium doesn't preserve or retain any highlight information. It's more of an experiment than anything else.

I'm using the CloudReader hosted on http://readium.github.io/readium-js-viewer and with the book "The Emerald City of Oz"

But I have the same bug with a build of the readium-js project from this commit: 665bdf0d90d5e0ae209b81eaa264293056cbf028

The official deployement URL for the cloud reader (latest build from the develop branch). is: https://readium.firebaseapp.com/?epub=https%3A%2F%2Freadium.github.io%2Freadium-js-viewer%2Fepub_content%2Femerald-city-oz

Can you please try again with this link?

The button for highlights doesn't appear in that cloud reader version, I can't highlight text.

Ah, excellent point :) (the plugin is disabled in the master branch / release, but we can reactivate it in the develop builds)

Please try the above URL again once Travis CI has finished building Readium: https://travis-ci.org/readium/readium-js-viewer/builds/163437854 Thanks :)

I tried myself in Edge and IE. Works "fine", except for the mouse hover error in the console: Unable to get property 'annotationHoverIn' of undefined or null reference Definitely something to investigate, @JCCR

Yes, that the point related with my other issue: https://github.com/readium/readium-shared-js/issues/332 I can't remove created highlights.

In this one, I can select for highlight again when I change the chapter.

@tmoreno I ran across this issue as well. Let me see if someone in my team managed to find a solution.
