Issue highlighting on preview
While highlighting text in preview, it jumps back to previous highlight very annoying. Anybody facing the same issue?

Hi, mukeshsingh1.
To highlight text, you'll need to follow the steps here:
"Highlight, underline, or strike though text
- In the Preview app
on your Mac, open the PDF you want to change. - Do any of the following:
- Quickly highlight, underline, or strike through text: Select text, click the down arrow next to the Highlight button
, then choose a highlight color, underline, or strikethrough. - Use highlight mode: Click the Highlight button (so it turns gray), click the down arrow next to the Highlight button, then choose a highlight color, underline, or strikethrough. Now, whenever you select some text, the highlighting style you chose is automatically applied to the text.
- To turn off highlighting, click the highlight tool again.
- Remove a highlight, an underline, or a strikethrough: Control-click the text, then choose Remove item from the shortcut menu.
