Keep Tool Selected - Check Boxes

[LadyImp]

I found out how to keep tools such as the Stamp Tool selected but this does not work for Check Boxes. Has anyone found a way to keep the Check Box tool selected?

Do you mean the tool that adds check-boxes form fields?

[LadyImp]

Yes.

What's your version of Acrobat?

[LadyImp]

Adobe Acrobat Pro DC Version 2017.009.20044.

I don't have access to this version right now, but in Acrobat XI there's a box at the top of the window (in Form Edit mode) that allows me to do it. I'm assuming (hoping) there's something similar in your version as well. It looks like this in Acrobat XI:

Unfortunately they have removed that in Acrobat Pro DC.

It's not the button with the pin icon?

ACK! They changed the icon on me! I'm blind. Thank you.

In my version (2020 Professional) you select the thumb tack to toggle on and offf.
