Who can help me to change the default Hand Tool?

Post by longkui1990 »

Hi,all
Every time I open a pdf file, it is Hand tool in default, but I want to change to Select Text Tool, every time I had to click on the "T" symbol to switch, so boring, who can tell me a good way to change its defalt setting!
Thank you for your kind help!

I don't think there's any way to change the default tool, but you can customise the shortcuts so that "t" will activate the text selection tool, and Shift "T" will activate the text box tool. Just right-click on any toolbar to open the customise dialogue.

Thank you for your reply, but I still hope that in the near future tracker will give us more freedom!

Hello longkui1990,

This is not likely to change in ver2 of our Viewer, but lets see what ver3 will bring - as this could be available in the very first build:
