I am trying to markup a PDF that I have in Okular. I would like to make a lot of notes with my Bamboo tablet, but every time I lift the pen, I go back to the default mode. This obviously defeats the purpose.
Is there a way to stay in Annotation mode across strokes? Or is there another tool in Ubuntu that will do what I want? Thanks!
With a single left mouse button click on an annotation tool button you can use a tool once. If you e.g. want to highlight all important parts of a text, you can activate that tool permanently by double clicking on the tool button. Press the Esc key or click the tool button again to leave the permanent mode.
In v23.04.3 (Windows) or maybe in the older versions, there is an Spin button at the final right of the Annotation Toolbar for keeping the annotation tool active after use.
There is now a Keep active button in the annotation toolbar. You can enable the annotation toolbar after using F6 or Fn+F6. Then right-click in the area that pops up and enable the annotation toolbar. For me the annotation toolbar was already there, though.
