Highlight continuously with PDF XChange Viewer

Hello,

I have been using PDF XChange Viewer for a few months.

I highlight a lot, and after highlighting, I was able to continue highlighting without clicking on the "selection tool" in the STANDARD toolbar. Everything was simple: I would select the "highlight" tool (and I'd highlight one sentence, then another, etc.)

For a while now, after I highlight, the "hand" tool in the STANDARD toolbar automatically replaces my highlighting tool, and I am forced to alternate between the "select" and "highlight" tools (I highlight and the hand tool comes back automatically) - "select" - "highlight" etc...

It's very slow and tiring. Does anyone know how to help me? Thank you very much ;)

    Hello,

    I just tried (v. 2.5) and it works without any issues.

    Try enabling the "reset this toolbar" function, which can be found in the "arrow" menu to the right of the "keep selected tool" box.

    If that doesn't work, uninstall the application and reinstall the latest version (2.5) making sure to:

    1) disable the addition of a plugin that is offered to you during installation.

    2) disable keeping the previous settings (I can't remember the exact term: old criteria...)

    Best regards.

    Hello Tontong,

    It's much simpler than what I suggested.

    Hello,
    When the underline tool is selected, a list area appears (third row of toolbars) "Keep the selected tool".
    You need to click for the light bulb to turn yellow.
