Description Ronny Gey 2020-03-06 08:53:08 UTC

I am using Okular for annotating journal articles as pdf files. My main interaction is 1 select highlighting tool 2 highlighting a text passage 3 continue reading 4 select hightlighting tool 5 highlighting next text passage and so on. Once the highlight tool is selected I would like it to stay selected so I can just easily continue highlighting.

Wish:
* no more step 4

Double-click on the highlighting tool, and it will stay selected.
