Is there a way to double click the images from PDF file open as a new tab?

Question

My user said before the Adobe PDF updates, their usual practice of using PDF file is When double clicking images, Adobe Acrobat would open the image in a new tab. However the cursor now goes from arrow head to a cross and double clicking doesn't open the image in a new tab. Instead, it gives the user the option to copy images.

I’ve tested myself and I could not open the images as a new tab by double-clicking it too.

Show Large Images is enabled in Preferences.

Is there any settings to enable this function? Or did it no longer exist anymore after Adobe updates?

Thanks.

Hiyannis_5500,Thank you for reaching out.The user was able to open an image from a PDF in a new tab in Acrobat. However, this feature has never been available in Acrobat. It's possible that the specific PDF they were using had a unique configuration that allowed this functionality.For more information on opening PDFs, you may refer to the following help document:Open a PDF in the application.If you are referring to something else, please share more information.Thanks,Meenakshi
