Scroll Quick Tools buttons

Post by Loki@99 »

Hi,

It will be great to make the Quick Tools buttons scrollable when they are hidden due to lack of screen space.

My issue is that I have a 12.6 inch device (Width 184.7 mm) with many buttons pinned on Quick Tools for stylus productivity and the current way PDFXCE handles hidden Quick Tools buttons isn't giving the best UX.

It's a bit confusing when using Tab group feature

Solution

Make Quick Tools buttons scrollable when they are hidden like this

Thanks for considering this,

Hello Loki@99,

I would like to add my vote to your feature request.
I have also shown in a previous post how the toolbar scrolls in Drawboard PDF Ver 5.x by flicking.

  1. The toolbar can also be displayed in full-screen mode.
  2. The font size and line thickness of each command can be displayed in text as well, making them easy to distinguish.
  3. Scroll up and down with a gesture (flick).
The first and second requests have probably already been made somewhere, and the third probably has not yet been made, so for reference, here is a video showing how it looks in the Drawboard PDF.
