Bring to Front and Bring to Back buttons greyed out

Post by eddablin »

Hi. I have added these buttons to my toolbar. I find that they are greyed out when I first click a comment. If I double clicks it works thereafter but it is slightly annoying to do this. If I reopen I need to double click again.

Hello eddablin,

Thank you for reporting this issue. I have created an internal development ticket to have this resolved. Please reference RT#3882: Issue with custom toolbar: Bring to Front & Send to Back actions when requesting an update to this issue.

Thank you for your patience and understanding while we work to resolve this.

Hi,

some versions ago it was possilbe to do "Bring to Front/ Sent to Back" with a shortcut,
I think it was Shift+PgUp / Shift+PgDn or something.

Why did this feature leave?


Thank you,
Oliver

Hello Oliver,

Thank you for the post. You can set up such shortcuts through the customise toolbars dialogue as described in the following link: https://www.pdf-xchange.com/knowled ... he-Editor-

I hope this helps!

Hello Patrick,

thanks for your answer!

But there is a strange behaviour. If I set up the shortcut "Control PgUp / PgDn" it works if an objekt is selected.
After deselecting the object and selecting it again (or another object) the shortcut is gone.

If i now select an object, enter the Command Properties where I can see the set up shortcut, change nothing and
just leave the dialog with OK, the shortcut works until the object is deselected.

Can you confirm that?


Thanks,
Oliver
