Markup tools problem

I'm using the markup tools (arrows, lines, etc.) to mark up a pdf document and I am not able to draw the arrow (or line) where I would.  It's almost like the pointer snaps to arrowhead at one point an invisible grid.  Then when I draw the arrow endpoint, it does the same thing - if triggers the end of a point invisible grid.  It is the source of the problems because I need to be able to point at a particular point in the pdf file.

Does anyone know an adjustment that will allow me to draw my annotations in more than one free form?  Do I have to turn off a setting? I encounter the same problem when I go to move the arrow line (or text box) - it only allows me to place the markup to grid points.

I use Acrobat 7.0 Pro

Turn off snap-to-grid under notice.

  • Drawing Markup tools are still not selected

    I recently switched from Acrobat 9 Pro to Acrobat X and I'm having a little trouble understanding the new interface.

    A problem is that when I used a drawing markup tool in Acrobat 9, it would remain to chosen so that I could draw lines in a number of places to stay.  With Acrobat X, whenever I draw a line the tool becomes selected, and I have to select all again in order to draw the next line.  I have to do something wrong.  A company as well as Adobe would not have designed such a difficult to use the tool.

    Can someone tell me how to keep the chosen drawing tools?

    Right, that is why he must then select the tool drawing that you want to use, as shown. It should appear after you do.

    Or you can select the drawing tool that you want to use, press Ctrl + E, and you should see the checkbox in the properties toolbar.

  • Missing text again markup tool

    Do you have Adobe take the only markup tool that matters... once again?

    On a production machine I left accidentally updated, I have a bunch of text markup tools:

    Screen Shot 2016-09-15 at 5.32.15 PM.png(Acrobat Pro DC screenshot)

    But one glaring omission:

    Screen Shot 2016-09-15 at 5.10.17 PM.png(screenshot of my main machine running Acrobat XI and no other updates last CC 11.3 because of this God awful UI update)

    This tool T-with-a-star is the text markup tool running separate insert, replace and delete everything into one effective tool. Why do others even exist? Why anyone would switch among three tools when there is one that does it all? This tool was fine for years at least from Acrobat 8 when my company started moving to a digital workflow. It was also fine in Acrobat 9, although there seemed little reason to spend 8. She was mysteriously deleted from Acrobat X, so I set up a stench and downgraded all my editors of page 9. When XI came out, I decided that was OK for my own use, but most of my editors still prefer to use Acrobat 9, so I don't argue. However, new users have found that they can not get Acrobat 9 for installation on newer operating systems and are forced to use Acrobat DC. I was pleasantly surprised to see that the annotation tools are now available in Acrobat Reader free DC, so it is definitely a bonus! But where is a tool that we absolutely need? I swear I remember seeing this complete tool when I started to recommend it to the users to upgrade, but now I just sat on a machine with Acrobat DC and all I see are these 3 limited tools.

    Is that what this master tool removed from new versions of Acrobat DC by some update? It's hiding somewhere? Or am I remembering wrong and it was never really there in Acrobat DC? I checked the full version and the version of the player, and what I see are boring, tedious markup tools, separated.

    For anyone else looking for this tool, there is no, this isn't just in fact an annotation tool more. Instead of using all the tools of individual text for your markup of text markup, simply use the selection tool (Yes, the arrow plain ol ') to your annotations.

    If you select some text and click on remove, it will be marked for deletion.

    If you select the text and start typing, it will be marked as a replacement.

    If you simply click on a spot and start typing, it will be marked as an insert to this place.

    In addition to being just generally not clear, there are a few other confused pieces:

    • Even if the selection tool doesn't do not part of the annotation tools, you can not use if intended for that purpose until you open the comment tools Panel, so you still expect these boring 4 seconds of blocking that never existed in previous versions.
    • You can not again double-click to select a word for a comment to replace. You click and drag, otherwise the word is just marked for deletion. This bug has been around for a while. Curiously, you pouvez triple-click to select a line and replacement, which I think is a turning on the bug.
  • Annotations and drawing markup tools overview

    This question has been posted in response to the following article: http://help.Adobe.com/en_US/Acrobat/Pro/using/WS58a04a822e3e50102bd615109794195ff-7e7f.w.h tml

    Apart from the stamps (which can be defined and stored using the stamp tool menu) you re-use not markup and comments - they are created for each file as required using standard tools. Although you can copy and paste a comment from a file to another it causes problems with the comment of the metadata (author, time, etc.) so it's not something to recommend.

  • Missing on my iphone 6s markup tool

    The markup & Replay (case) tool is missing from my iPhone 6.  I very deeply rely on this tool.  I work outside the United States, and it is very difficult to find a fax.

    When you open a PDF file in the mail app, tap on the file open, then the markup Toolbox must be in the lower right. If you don't see it, close the mail application and force restart your phone.

    To close the messaging application, press the Home button twice quickly. You will see small glimpses of your applications recently used. Drag to the left to find the application you want to close. Swipe up on the preview of the application to close.

    To force the reboot your device, press and hold the two buttons of sleep/wake and home for at least ten seconds, until you see the Apple logo.

    I'm having a problem with the pen tool recently. the pen tool doesn't let me do the sharp edges or horns.

    Screenshot_7.png

    See how the pen tool will not let me do the curve?

    It is a huge problem, because I want to do logos and I can't.

    If I'm doing something wrong, or using the wrong tool please tell me the correct way.

    I should also add the alternative way (which seems a bit lengthy compared to above, but who can help with a different design)

    Start up and going counterclockwise

    Click on the highest point of the page

    Click the second (straight line)

    Click on the third (straight line)

    Click and drag in the fourth (to create the curve)

    ALT click on the fourth point, which you have just created (which removes the handle facing forward)

    Click and drag to the fifth (to create the curve)

    ALT click on the fifth (to remove the handle facing forward)

    Click on items 6 and 7 (straight)

    Click and drag the 8 (curve)

    ALT click on the 8th (removes the handle facing forward)

    Click and drag the 9 (curve)

    ALT click 9 (to remove the handle facing forward)

    Click on the 10th (straight line)

    Click on the starting point (straight line to close the loop)

  • Using the Rotate tool - problems

    I'm a newbie, but I know how to do this, at least I thought I did.  In short, I want to draw an ellipse, then use the Rotate tool to copy many of them, until I get a circle of them, using the lower part as the pivot point.  So if I want 36 steps, I put the angle to 10 degrees and copy, then ctrl-d to paste as needed to complete the circle.  The problem is, I can't get the pivot point for adapt to where I want to.  When I initially click on the ellipse first (and only), then my rotation tool, I then passes the pivot toward the bottom of the ellipse.  When I double click on the Rotate tool again to bring up the dialog box, the pivot point goes back to the Center.  Once the dialog box is in place, I can't set the pivot point more.  Furthermore, if I select the ellipse, select the Rotate tool, move the pivot point, then try ALT-click on the new point pivot, the newly copied and pasted ellipse will be elsewhere on the artboard.

    What Miss me?  Thanks for any help.

    Well I just found out the problem.  It's my Wacom driver.  I took my USB mouse and it worked like a champ, picked up the pen or the Wacom mouse and you never know where it will copy.  Thanks anyway.  At least now I know.

  • Crop tool - problem!

    Hi, I use Photoshop CS5.1 on two computers; on the laptop, it works fine, but about 6 weeks ago I started having problems with the cropping tool on my work computer (all other functions seem to work).

    When I mark an area and then click Enter he removes the entire image instead of register the domain I scored. Everything else seems to work very well. Have I missed an update or changed without knowing a setting?

    Or it's just a strange bug? I'm not too keen on the reinstallation of the program, because that would mean having to reinstall InDesign etc. too, and I really need this program now. Any ideas?

    Cheers, Peter

    Hi Peter,.

    Greetings!

    I would say to reset the tool and see if that makes the difference.

    To reset a tool, you must first have the selected tool. Then Ctrl-click (Windows users: right click) the button tool preset in the Tool Options bar.

    When you click this button, you will see a small menu and you can select Tool Reset to reset the current tool to its default value or reset all tools to deliver all the tools to its default value. Once selected, the tool will act as the first time you have used it.

    Using this simple method to reset your tool with a single click, you can quickly remedy any situation where the tool does not correctly and to maintain the flow of creativity going.

  • Lasso tool problem

    When I use the lasso tool to select any thing and then ctrl + c and ctrl + v to copy and paste, then all of the selected objects get stuck. The selected objects are a line, a rectangle and a number. The number is not sticking. If I select same objects with the tool lasso and then switch to the selection tool to move objects are moving, so this shows that they are selected. If I use selection tool and then ctrl + c and ctrl + v everything gets stuck, so it's suddenly not in locked layers or anything like that.

    In the same document, I also have a related problem of the lasso tool. If I select some objects with the lasso and then tool press DELETE I get the error message "cannot delete objects. If I use the selection tool, and then tap on delete all objects are deleted.

    Having to use the normal selection tool is instead a lot of extra work for the forms that I select does not fit into a rectangle without selecting a large number of additional objects.

    (The problem is not consistent through other documents.) I have CS6.

    Me too. I can't that guess that has to do with the text box area being a bit of a separate object.

    But it's just that. If you think this is a bug, please: feature request/Bug Report Form
