Is there an option to remain in drawing mode? Example: I want to add a number of lines and a number text items to a chart, so I want to select "remain in drawing mode", select the Line Tool toolbar icon, go to the chart, left click and hold to establish the start/end points of the line, release the button, left click/hold to establish the next line (etc), then select the Type Text Tool (similarly add a number of items of text) ~ then exit out of "remain in drawing mode". This is to avoid having to go back to the toolbar each time. Is this possible? Thanks Date Time Of Last Edit: 2014-02-27 10:40:24

Just a thought that it would be nice to be able to quickly toggle between "remain in drawing mode" (After single tool use change to = None), and the users' "normal" mode (I use Hand usually) by having a Tools Menu option which could be accessed via a Toolbar button. Many thanks Tony

Toolbar button would still be very useful to quickly switch being "none" and "hand" (or the other options available). Thanks
