Apache OpenOffice (AOO) Bugzilla – Issue 22807
Persistent tool selection
Last modified: 2003-11-25 07:32:57 UTC
I want to be able to annotate over the top of my presentation by using the Freeform line tool to write on it. However each time I release the mouse (or lift the pen on my graphics tablet) the freeform line tool is deselected and the select tool becomes active meaning I have to reselect the tool for every character. OO.o Drawing doesn't do this, the selection of the tool is persistent until I unselect it.
Please try to double click the tool button. Double clicking it keeps the function until another function is selected.
Thanks for your help. Closed.
