Cannot deactivate Underline in text box

Post by ksudavid »

Create a text box and start typing. Activate the underline tool and type some more. Now deactivate the underline tool. As soon as you continue typing the underline goes active again. I can't seem to deactivate it without exiting the text box and coming back in again.

I posted about this. Try a space followed by Ctrl-B and it might work.

(In Word and most other apps. the space isn't needed).

Otherwise, finish all of your typing, then select the words you want to format, and do the formatting afterwards.

Which build of the viewer do you use? I cannot reproduce the problem using 40.7.

I'm using 40.7 and have no problem reproducing the bug.

I get: The sly (ctrl b) brown(ctrl b) fox.

instead of: The sly (ctrl b) brown(ctrl b) fox.

If I type: The sly (ctrl b) brown (ctrl b)fox.

it works as expected.

While you're fixing that Ivan, how about making Ctrl+Shft select whole words, please?

Starting today I can no longer reproduce my original Ctrl+U problem. In other words it works just fine. I couldn't tell what is different other than I did have to install Windows Net 3.0 Framwork for my Jing installation.
