My Highlighter Tool is now turning off after the first time use. After I updated yesterday, the issue started happening. I highlight numbers sporadically in columns alot and to keep hitting the highlight tool each time is annoying. How the hell do I keep it on, until I'm ready to turn it off?

Hi RobinDZ60,

Could you please try following troubleshooting steps:

Select highlighter tool > press Ctrl + E > check the box next to "Keep tool selected", does that work?

I did Ctrl+E but there is no option for Keep tool selected. i need to click the highlight icon every time I need to use it and is getting frustrating

Hi there,

Hope you are doing well and sorry for the late reply.

If you are still looking for an answer to this and using the New Acrobat experience, please select the highlight tool and then click on the Pin icon in the Quick toolbar to keep it selected.
