Changing opacity of ovals, rectangles etc Need transparency.

[sprbxr]

I am using Adobe Acrobat Pro DC on a Mac. When I first started using Adobe, I was able to draw ovals, rectangles etc with no opacity. I would like to be able to draw transparent ovals or rectangles on docs. It seems I was able to do just that before I change the fill colors on a different pdf I was working on. Is there a way to allow ovals, rectangles to be drawn with no opacity . ie transparent?

Yes, but not using the new color picker. You'll need to use the old Properties toolbar. Ctrl / Cmd + E.

I think the new Color Picker is really missing some useful features. You can read about the comparison between the two of them here: Document Geek: The Case for Still Using the Deprecated Features in Acrobat, Part 1: The Properties T...

Pretty sloppy.

I'm using more small company software than ever these days due to the trend of declining product quality from the major publishers. There's a lot of good stuff out there.
