Keep Stamp Tool Selected in DC PRO

I am not able to find the option to keep the stamp tool selected in DC Pro, thus creating the need to return to the palette to reselect each time the stamp is needing to be placed.  Can anyone assist?

    Select a stamp but do not stamp it on your document yet. Ctrl-E brings up the Stamp Tools Properties which has a check box to "Keep Tool Selected". It took me quite a while to find this myself. I use stamps a lot and Adobe has certainly made them more inconvenient compared to previous versions of Acrobat.

    I had this problem after updating to Ventura. Try opening the help tab in Acrobat and selecting check for updates, then update. When the update is complete, shut down your computer then start it up again and open Acrobat. I did this and the stamp palette once again appeared.

    This doesn't work anymore. I have been trying to open the stamp palette on my iMac but since updating to Ventura, this function no longer works. Clearly this has been a problem for a long time, once again making me wonder why Adobe is so slow to fix these things.

    Thank you so much, yes I agree it is somewhat more difficult to find some options in the new version compared to previous ones.  I also found I was missing updates which originally prevented me from seeing this option.  Thanks again for your help

        Hi - I have the option "Keep Tool Selected" but the stamp palette still doesn't automatically populate when I open a pdf.  This was working for me, but all of a sudden this week, it has not been opening.  Any suggestions to correct this would be super helpful.

        Thank you!
