Complaint - Completing a Comment now requires three clicks instead of one

In the latest version of Adobe Acrobat Pro DC, comments have to be completed by resetting the status instead of just checking a box. This requires clicking on the three dots, opening the Set Status menu and selecting Completed. Three clicks instead of one.

I understand that someone must have requested more statuses instead of just Completed (rejected, hold, etc.) so completed was bundeled into the new function. However, the files I have to process routinely have 1000 or more individual changes that I have to complete (big files). That's a lot of extra clicks just to complete a change!

I vote we keep the menu of new stauses for those that need it, but restore the Completed checkbox!

Do you have "Show checkbox in Comment note" checked in Preferences?

 

That checkbox has nothing to do with Statuses. It's user-specific, as opposed to Statuses, which as not user-specific.

Excellent!

We just uploaded a new version of Adobe and our settings didn't transfer.

Thanks!
