Ribbon > Format - Width and opacity slider

[Loki@99]

Hi,

It will be convenient to have a slider in Ribbon > format for width and opacity control.

Why ?
It gives a great user experience when using a stylus to markup PDF.

For your reference, it's available in Microsoft Edge and Drawboard PDF.

Hello Loki@99,

Thank you for your suggestion.

I will forward it to our developers for consideration.

Regards.

Hi Dimitar,

I just noticed that it will be better to have the slider in the Tool Properties pannel. A slider in Ribbon > Format will make the UI cluttered.

Btw, that pannel also need some UI improvements for touch.

Simply making the items length larger will be enough.

Hello Loki@99,

Thank you for the input.

We will consider this as well.

Hi,

For the UI, a simple slider in the drop down menu will be great.

Hello, Loki@99

As usual, no promises, but the team will be looking at this thread when they are investigating the possibility.

[Edit:]A quick update, we have a ticket, a little more generic, instead of just for the width/opacity, this is for all dropdowns that could benefit from it, including others with a numeric value tied to the presets.

Kind regards,
