Combine document preview window tooltips

Post by dasy2k1 »

Hi there,
I have noticed that with version 9.0 the tool tip that used to show the document name when you were combining multiple documents together no longer works (it just shows the page number for the new document) this is in the screen where you can drag the individual documents around to re-arrange them.

this was an extremely useful feature under 8.0 and was kind of essential to our workflow. Is this a setting that i need to change to get this back or a bug?

Hello dasy2k1,

Do you have a screenshot of how those were shown before?
If you don't can you please make a new screenshot with the new pop-up info and a note that e.g. at the same location you were able to see the file name before?

Kind regards,
Stefan

Hello dasy2k1,

Thanks for the images!
Passed this on to a colleague from our dev team working on the PDF Tools, and asking him to investigate further.

Kind regards,
Stefan


A quick update - this has now been confirmed a bug and will be fixed in the upcoming build (355) of PDF Tools.

Fantastic thanks,

incidentally when i run one of my custom tools that has
extract pages (flattening all form fields and comments) and then merge the tooltip does work but gives you the filename of the first document for all documents in the list

(have to extract the pages as when you run merge documents on a single document it gets skipped and if one of those form fields is a signature then it fails on the next stage due to being unable to make the changes it needs)
