Turn off auto switch to "Format" page?
I was wondering if there is a way to turn off the automatic switch to the "Format" page/toolbar when you select a stamp from the "Comment" page
The reason behind this is to allow you to quickly switch back to other tools without having to return to the "Comment" page/toolbar

Re: Turn off auto switch to "Format" page?
any news? Because I'd also like to add that when using the typewriter for example, you don't get sent to the format tab automatically, but if you choose the format tab you stay there – that is how I want it to work with the stamp tool as well

Re: Turn off auto switch to "Format" page?
Hello, MedBooster
This is a feature exclusive to the stamp tool, and it was configured as such specifically to allow a more open view of your stamps palette when the stamp tool is being used. Unfortunately, as I suspected, there is no way to prevent this switch at the moment, but the Dev team is now aware that some of our users would like that as an option. I cannot promise that this will be changing, but I can assure you that is is being considered.

Re: Turn off auto switch to "Format" page?
About this, are you sure there is no way to disable it? I mean, when I choose any other tool typewriter/shape/arrow/line – I do not get redirected to the format tab. I would love to be able to disable that, because as you can't reorder the items in the comment style palette optional window I would absolutely want to stay on the comment tab (not being redirected to the format tab),
For an easier way to access stamps I use the stamps palette optional window; So I think a lot of people would appreciate such redirection not being forced but optional
See the attached screenshots, a lot fo the time is would be pointless for it to switch to the format tab when you can already use the extra styles palette windows

AND,
please consider making the comment styles palette optional window switch tools when you use the upper "Comment" tab to switch tools, that would be a gamechanger
(other than rearrangable favourites etc. Perhaps you could make it be sorted alphabetically like it seems the stamps are being?

Re: Turn off auto switch to "Format" page?
Hi MedBooster
I'm pretty sure it currently can't be switched off or toggled to the other behaviour. We do have a number of tickets in the system relating to reworking the various palettes. There will be changes coming here in time and this discussion will definitely be part of what is considered as we do this.
Your feedback and suggestions here are most welcome and are heard.
Lets see what comes of this eventually. I do not have an ETA for delivery at this point in time.
I hope that helps.

Re: Turn off auto switch to "Format" page?
I see 200 views on this request, so if you agree that there should be an option to turn off this auto switch for easier navigation and more ease of switching between tools please voice your opinion... Generally, the more people show that they care, the more probable it is that there will be a solution.
I still find myself so annoyed to constantly have to click back to the comment tab, this is when I'm operating using a mouse, (so don't tell me I can just use keyboard shortcuts)

Re: Turn off auto switch to "Format" page?
Hello MedBooster,
We have several people in our team who actively monitor the forums - and each of us would read most topics, so when there are a few posts in a topic - you can count e.g. 5-10 views from our side for each new post. Also - if we make edits to our posts - this counts as further views, so that counter should be taken with caution.
But if anyone else is also reading this topic - they are of course all welcome to add their vote!
Kind regards,
Stefan

Re: Turn off auto switch to "Format" page?
I am happy to announce that when choosing the Stamp tool (now that I've upgraded to 360) no longer switches the tab to "Format" automatically. So we can archive this as "solved" or however that works
5 months later :p
Thanks

Re: Turn off auto switch to "Format" page?
Hi,
It seem the auto switch to format page is turned off. As I am the user whom like the auto switch to format page, may I ask is there an option for user like me to be able to "go back" to its previous way (auto switch to format page)??

Hello Dawson.Lim,
Welcome to our Forum.
As you already noticed, there is no such option. However, I will ask our developers if they can add a button to enable/disable this behavior.

Hello @Dawson.Lim
Why would you want that though? You can add shortcuts to the format tab like I've done here if the issue is having to navigate back to the comment tab for other tools:
The stamps palette also works great, you can just put it over the toolbar. You don't even have to double-click to select like in the comment styles palette.
