Hint: When you get size 1 text, quote it. Then, go back to where you think it is. You'll see in the quote

Code: Select all

Thanks, just before you posted this I figured it out. I had figured even size one would show up when zoomed or highlighted, but I found even if I couldn't see the highlight, it is still highlighted.

Ye, but then you have to hunt it down.

I'll see if I can find a riddle... but somebody else post one if possible.

I've got one: Name a nine letter word that remains a word after you take out one letter at a time, right down to one letter? (example: straps - traps - taps) List all nine forms of the word.

i
in
sin
sing


That's as far as I've gotten. :? I've made it that far with another setup...but it has a not-so-appropriate word in it, so that can't be right.

Startling, starling, staring, string, sting, sing, sin, in, I
