I'm trying to create transparent fill shapes (with an outline) in Acrobat DC, and there is no "transparent fill" option. Where did this go?? I've been able to create outlined shapes with transparent fills in every other version of the program.

The answer was about the commenting tools (mark up). You can still make them with transparent fills.

You have to bring up the old Properties bar to access it. https://documentgeek.blogspot.com/2018/06/how-to-make-pdf-drawing-markup-with-no.html

Thanks for sending the link, but there is no instruction as to how to bring up the old Properties toolbar. Any quick instruction for that?

Resurrecting this only to point out the latest versions of Adobe CC have removed even this option. They want users to pay for another program like InDesign or PhotoShop to use such a basic feature. After all, they charge more for CC packages if they provide all the basics in a single program!

The issue is they have to be done individually, one at a time. There's no way to preset the transparent fill as the default option.

Making current properties default worked for me.
