|  Applying Highlighting
Just like in a regular paper notebook, NoteBook provides highlighters which you can use to highlight text or cells in a page’s outline. You can assign whatever meaning you choose to highlighting - for example, you might choose to apply the red highlighter to very important items. One benefit of highlighting is how easily can later find highlighted items using the Highlighters page in the Notebook’s Multidex. So if you mark important items with the red highlighter, you can see them all at once by viewing the red highlighter entry in the Highlighters Multidex page.
