There appears to be some issue adding annotations to a PDF in DT4. Specifically adding a note I can’t seem to add any text to it, or adding a text box, or text to the annotation.
Do you use beta 1 or 2 of DEVONthink and which version of macOS do you use? Are all PDF documents affected?
Using Beta 2 and Mac Sequioa. I tried it on a couple of PDF’s
And what exactly did you try?
Adding a note annotation or text annotation. It doesn’t accept any text. The cursor does not appear in the text input field
No. This problem occurs when trying to annotate a PDF.When I go to the text field I can only type one letter, before it changes focus. Try it with a text box or a note. In your example above I would press “T” and it would change focus and go blank.
In DEVONthink, hold the Option key and select Help > Report Bug. Include a screencast of the behavior so we can see if it’s reproducible here.
See if you can reproduce this at your end first (if not I will put in a bug report). I have noticed this works if it’s in a separate window.
i.e When I try to annotate a PDF whilst it is in Devonthink in the main screen I cannot add text, BUT… If I double click on the PDF so that it is in a separate window I can add text and notes in the normal way.
