Multiple Custom Tool Sets with Same Tools - Different Properties for Each Tool
For work I use multiple tools to add comments to PDFs. I have created a custom tool set with the tools I need to use the most. We are required to use specific colors depending on what we are commenting on. It would make it so much easier if I could make custom sets (all with the tools I use) and have each one be different color schemes.
A few examples of this are below:
Custom Tool Set #1
Highligher – Color/Green
Text Box – Border/Red; Fill/Green; Text Color/Blue
Arrow – Color/Green
Rectangle – Color/GreenCustom Tool Set #2

Keep Tool Selected - we need it back please
There used to be a great feature where you could click a box to "keep tool selected" so you keep using the same tool, over and over again without clicking on the Icon again and again and again. It was especially useful when reviewing a large document where you wanted to highlight several passages or for adding text, etc.

Make Comments Private
Can you make comments private? i.e I want to send PDF to A&B via cloud, but I dont want A to see B comments and vice versa. Is this doable?
So there is no way to 'segregate' participants? I am wanting to share a file with people who I do not want to be able to see other participants comments. So what is the point of sharing I hear you ask? I want to share with internal staff, but only want external invitees to comment/mark up without seeing the internal discussion about what they have to say, as it may…

Default paste for text into a comment field should UNFORMATTED TEXT
This is the biggest single thing that reduces my productivity in Acrobat DC. So often I need to paste some text from inside the PDF into the comment field. Suppose the text is white font on a black background, what is that going to look like in the comment box? In what universe would retaining the formatting as the default make any sense at all?

Make Changing of Comment Type Possible
Since InDesign CC2019 has the ability to import PDF comments for quicker apply of text corrections, it would be of enormous help, to be able to change the comment type in Acrobat.
Some proof readers e.g. use the markup comment type to change text. But InDesign doesn’t allow the markup comment type to be executed with a simple klick on »Apply«.
Or they use »delete text« comment type, althought they wanted to change text. But in InDesign »delete text« simply deletes, but doesn’t insert the comment’s text.So if I’d be able to change the type of a comment easily,…

Info bulle
There are tooltips on all software helpers, which you can activate or not. But when it comes to making a tooltip yourself, nothing allows it ... When we have small references on a text (for example by exposing, 1, 2, ...), this it would be really useful to be able to introduce the possibility of adding a tooltip there when the mouse passes over the small number. Currently, it's impossible, or a real hassle !!

Comments Highlight needs to be a different colour
The Grays are too close to each other. A choice would be good. I raised this years ago and got a reply saying 'good idea we will pursue this'.
Very difficult to see which comment you are on if you have 200 etc
Please sort asap

Add option to Expand/collapse at the comment level
Acrobat (years ago) had this ability, I believe.
Currently, we can expand/collapse all comments.
We can also expand/collapse comments for an entire page.Please add an option at the comment level that would expand/collapse the replies to a specific comment.
When a page has 30 markups, and each markup has 5 replies (yes, this has happened :-)), there are now 150 comments showing in the comment list for just that single page.
Being able to collapse a comment thread would be a massive improvement in usability of the commenting feature, I believe.

- All selected annotations should have a blue selection box representing the moveObserved result:
- Only the last selected line…1 vote
