I'm currently working on a Word add-in. In simple words, the tool searches for words in a dictionary and then proposes a definition. I would like to highlight all the words where for the add-in has a definition. The problem is when using the "highlight"-option of the Word API, it overwrites highlights of the user and makes changes to the "undo"-stack.
I think this is possible as I've saw an example of the Grammarly Word add-in: see this picture
Does anyone has an idea how to realize this?
This is currently not possible using Office JS APIs.
The screenshot displays the capability of the Grammarly VSTO based add-in, which is able to display the proofing marks you see on the document. This capability is not yet available on Office JS.
