New document from scanner

Post by Arnold »

I use the New Document > From Scanner menu option in PDFX Viewer quite a bit, so I assigned it to a keyboard shortcut. When the dialog box appears, the Scan button is highlighted, but pressing enter does nothing (Scanner.pdf).

If I then click the Scan button a scanner set up dialog box appears with the Start button highlighted (Scanner2.pdf). Again hitting the enter button does nothing. This dialog box is always on the top left of the screen also, not centered.

Does this happen because these dialog boxes are controlled by the scanner’s software (Brother inkjet/scanner)? If not, should the enter key work in these 2 dialog boxes on these highlighted buttons?

I am using 2.5 (build 197) but it has been this way for a while.

Thanks.

Hi, Arnold
When the dialog box appears, the Scan button is highlighted, but pressing enter does nothing (Scanner.pdf).
We will fix this issue in the next build.

Yes, the dialog in Scanner2.pdf is controlled by Brother inkjet/scanner, so, I think, we cannot change behavior of this dialog but we will check this case also...

It appears that the dialog box in Scanner 2 now responds to pressing the enter key, but the enter key still does not work on the dialog box in Scanner.pdf. Thanks.

Hello Arnold,

Paul and I have passed this to our devs, and I hope that they will get an answer for you a bit later today, but if not I will chase this myself personally tomorrow for you.

Best,
Stefan
