Default Tool Selection

[srte]

Testing this as alternate to Adobe. Users complaining that it defaults to Hand tool, Not Select.

The Hand Tool will not select text.

Many times a day they open pdf's to retrieve an Invoice number and copy/paste to another app.

Can you set the default tool to Select?

Hello @srte,

Thank you for reaching out to us through our Community Forums!

At the moment, there is no way to set Select as default instead of the Hand tool. You will have to choose the tool to do copying/pasting.

A work-around is to assign a shortcut via Quick Access Toolbar at the top of the window, More Commands > choose Customize the Key shortcuts, find Select tool and assign a shortcut of your choice.

If you want Nitro Pro to have a setting to change the default tool, you can submit the request directly to our Product Team using the link: https://community.gonitro.com/forum/12-product-improvement/

While we cannot guarantee each feature request submitted will be granted, rest assured our development team will be notified through above website and all updates will be available on this page: https://www.gonitro.com/support/documentation

Please check for updates on page above from time to time.

Cheers!

The work-around will not work since the Quick Access Toolbar will not keep changes.  It keeps reverting back to the default.
