Description Martin 2020-05-06 11:41:51 UTC 
In 1.9.2 it is possible by double click on a tool to make it peristent until escape or right click is triggered. With a single click the tool is active for one action. It would be nice to have an option to change the behavior:
- single click: tool is active until escape is clicked or right click
- double click: tool is activated for one action.

https://invent.kde.org/kde/okular/-/merge_requests/105 will replace the current annotation “toolbar” by a new, real toolbar. It will have a dedicated button to enable/disable persistent mode. Will that be satisfying?

Otherwise I don’t think that double click for single time use makes sense. The current problem is that the double click feature is very hard to discover, and discovering how to use a tool only once doesn’t sound satisfying to me.

Hi David,

yes a dedicated button is also good. I'm using in the most time the persistent mode so enabling it is also good. Thanks
