Re: Keyboard shortcut to open and focus recent files search box

Hi Stefan,

Thank you for confirming that a mouse click is needed here.

Keyboard navigation would be great, that list gains lots of entries on a busy day an even opening a pdf I used yesterday is cumbersome without filtering first.

Re: Keyboard shortcut to open and focus recent files search box

Hi Stefan, Thank you for your reply. However, I'm not interested in searching inside a document (I lnow those shortcuts) but I would like to have a shortcut to search for a recently used file in those 500 recent files I have and open it without reaching for the mouse. I can add the recent list to th...

Keyboard shortcut to open and focus recent files search box

Hi, I can specify a shortcut for the recent files button, and if this button is present in the toolbar, the recent files list opens once the shortcut is pressed. However, I haven't found a way to navigate to the search box via the keyboard. This make the shortcut rather useless, since I have to use ...

Re: Font color for measure distance tool caption

Hi Vasyl, Paul, Willy, Thanks for pointing out the (not quite obvious) way to do this. I would also like to have the properties show these text settings. It's good to know that this is already on the list of enhancements. I think there are other comment tools as well that would benefit from having t...

Font color for measure distance tool caption

Hi, sorry if this is a stupid question, but I could not find it in the documentation: Is there a way to change the font color of the distance tool caption (the measurement result)? I have a pdf with black background and I need to change the font color to something other than black. The tool properti...

Licensing Questions for v9 (and a rant)

Hi Tracker Team, I just found out about the new licensing in v9 and I have a few questions that I could not find answers to in the documentation and FAQ. For online activation, how regularly is the activation status checked ? What happens with an online-activated install, if it is offline at the tim...

Feature Suggestion: Open PDF as read-only (non-blocking), notify on change by other applications

Hi, I'd like to suggest an option in the open file dialog and command line options to request that a file is opened as read-only, so that other applications can still modify it while it is open in PDF Editor. XChange Editor should monitor the file and show a notification (maybe at the top of the doc...

Feature Suggestion: Edit font settings of multiple selected text box / callout boxes

Hi, I'm not sure whether I'm missing something, but I'd like to change the font settings (font-family, size, style, color etc) of several text boxes or callout boxes at the same time and haven't found a way to do this. I can multi-select several boxes using Ctrl and I can change their border and fil...

Re: Feature Suggestion: Export comments to datafile: Easier / Automatic import and export to save comments separately

Hi Daniel, the custom button method is a great feature. The attached Javascript file in the "C:\Program Files\Tracker Software\PDF Editor\JavaScripts" or "%appdata%\Roaming\Tracker Software\PDFXEditor\3.0\JavaScripts" folder works very well. Im attaching it here, just in case tha...

Re: Feature Suggestion: Export comments to datafile: Easier / Automatic import and export to save comments separately

Hi Daniel, thanks for taking the time to review my post. I am aware of the Import/Export functionality. For my use case, however, this has to be done every time a document gets opened or saved, which is error prone (forget it and you might miss or overwrite comments by other users or lose your own c...

Feature Suggestion: Export comments to datafile: Easier / Automatic import and export to save comments separately

Hi. The problem I'm trying to solve is as follows: We have lots of documentation PDF documents that come from external sources and often have 100 to 1000 pages and are therefore quite large. We like to add comments to these files and would also like to put them under version control, together with t...
