Hi,
I'm having some issues regarding the highlight tool recently. Earlier today, I was using Adobe Acrobat Reader normally. When I opened it again, I noticed the highlight tool was no longer leaving a trail before releasing the mouse button while highlighting freehand (See first image).
Also, the highlight I made was different than my other highlights. I tried making the settings of my previous highlights default, but it instead made new highlights seem opaque (See second image).
I tried checking for updates and repairing installation, but to no avail. I also tried this in other PDFs. Text highlighting worked normally, but all freehand highlighting had the same issue. What can I do?

Also experiencing the same issue here, it just started today. And it seems like there's a lot more people suffering from this but hasn't been resolved for a long time.
