For widths... text sizes, etc... why not implement some way to change the intervals?
For example; what if you would want 3pt to be an option for text, or 20 pt an option for the pencil tool?
(without having to create presets of a specific color and then having to change the color)
This would apply to the width of rectangles/ovals, arrows, lines ... and so on as well

Re: Size presets in the format tab text or pencil
For example;
right clicking on the current width could show an option to "add current width to list", and it would be added in the correct order e,g, 16 would be added below 12, and above 20 if those were there

Re: Size presets in the format tab text or pencil
Hello MedBooster,
While these lists of values are not part of the PDF specification - those are the most frequently used/needed ones, and are pretty 'consistent' between the PDF software world. So while I will ask our devs - please do not have high hopes that this could be approved.
You should be able to type in your desired value not present in the default drop down lists, and you can then specify a style for the specific tool, which should remember that specific custom value as well.
Kind regards,
Stefan

Oh I almost thought you meant that when you add a specific style to a custom tool, it should also be visible in the drop-down menu,Tracker Supp-Stefan wrote: ↑Fri Oct 06, 2023 9:39 am Hello MedBooster,

but yes, I understand that I can save the size to a custom tool – this was more about the format tab, if you're just using a mouse or whatever and don't want to deal with typing in the size.
Thanks for the clarification, maybe other PDF-editors have the same size intervals for different tools.

Hello MedBooster,
Yes - the majority of other products out there use the same pre-defined sizes, and if you need another custom size you are expected to type it
Kind regards,
Stefan
