Version 21.7 Issue: Markup Placement Blocks View of Underlying Content

  • Version 21.7 Issue: Markup Placement Blocks View of Underlying Content

    Posted by Charles Yancoskie on September 4, 2025 at 10:21 am

    Anyone else have this issue after updating to Version 21.7? When placing markups, the colors are solid and block the view of underlying content.

    Another issue both before and after updating to Version 21.7: Count markups do not appear in the “Recents” Tool Chest. Anyone else have this problem?

    have yet to update, so I haven’t seen this yet.
    Is it just a case of the highlighter function being reset?

      No, highlight button is still on for Fill Color such as Area Measurement, Polygon, Rectangle, Cloud, etc. Of course, selecting “No Fill” for Fill Color does not block any content except at the lines, but lines are not the problem, the Fill Color is the problem. This does not affect the Highlighter Tool, only shapes with Fill Color. Btw, do your Count Measurements show up in the Recents Tool Chest?

    I haven’t made the update to 21.7 yet @revu-user – I tend to wait a couple of days to install the updates so that early adopters, like yourself, can find these issues… 🙂

    I too have wondered why the count tools don’t show in the recent tools. Might have to ask the Developers at Unbound at the end of the month about that…

    As a work around you could right click on a count tool that you are already using and select “resume count”. While this isn’t always convenient if the pervious markup is on a different page in your PDF it does get it done…
