We made several bug fixes in Bb Annotate.
- We fixed an issue where selecting a comment made the document turn opaque and the Close button no longer worked.
- We resolved several visual inconsistencies that occurred after the latest update.
- The group dropdown in the toolbar is now showing in dark theme.
- Colors are consistent when hovering and selecting tools.
- Dropdown menus are now always in white.
- Buttons on the toolbar are white.
- Bookmarks now all have the same color background.
- The Save and Cancel buttons in the comment box are correctly aligned.
- Anonymous comments can be added. o Comments can be customized when the comment box is open while the screen is resized.
- We fixed an issue in Firefox where using the Backspace key made the cursor go to the top of the comment box when released.
- The Save button now correctly displays in comment boxes instead of an up arrow.
- Comment formatting options are available in Annotate Fit Width view while editing a comment.
- When a link is selected within a comment, editing options remain available.
