Review by:
3.0/5

One of the issues you might face when trying to read long documents online is that there are few ways of marking the line of text you are at, and Line Reader is a useful tool that can prove helpful in such situations.

The application has been designed to turn your mouse into a helper line that will make scrolling through such documents a much easier operation.

The software allows you to modify the length or width of your line, as well as to change its color so as to better highlight the part of text you are reading.

You are also provided with the possibility to have a second line displayed on the screen, which will further accentuate your cursor. Line Reader also enables you to flip the line to a vertical position, which could come in handy when reading specific texts.

Your lines can be set to be displayed on the left or right side of the cursor, but you can also set the cursor to be placed at the middle of the lines.

Line Reader provides you with a variety of customization options for your lines, regardless of whether it is the main one or additional, helping lines.

The app comes with a highlighter to allow you to focus on specific parts of the text. Moreover, it supports various highlighting shapes, and a tag along form.

You can set the application to run at Windows startup, either minimized or maximized, and you also have the option to modify snapshot settings. It allows you to define and save profiles for easy use.

There are also a wide array of keyboard shortcuts that you can take advantage of, even without interacting with the application itself.

In the end, Line Reader can easily prove a handy tool when it comes to reading long texts online without losing your focus, especially since it offers various highlighting options and customization capabilities and allows you to access its functions via keyboard shortcuts.

What's new in Line Reader 2.8:

  • The application now includes saved profiles, a muli-line capability, keyboard nudge control and auto scrolling lines.
  • We've also added the capability to change the way the line itself functions, inverting the text beneath it, or using a number of graphical effects.
