Eyedropper Tool resets to Color Theme Tool after each update
It's not exactly a bug, but a constant annoyance: I use the Eyedropper Tool a lot. After each Indesign update it is reset to the Color Theme Tool in the tools palette. Could you please have it remember how it was set (or actually make the Eyedropper Tool the default and not the Color Theme Tool)?
I primarily use it to copy formatting from text. When I'm in the Text Tool highlighting the text and then wanting to change to the Eyedropper Tool its only then that I notice it has been reset. Then I always have to change from Color Theme Tool to Eyedropper Tool first which results in the highlighting selection getting lost.
I'd really appreciate that tiny change.

Hello Christian,
Thanks for your post. We will review your request.
A simple thing that you could do after each update is to simply press the Keyboard Shortcut 'I' to make the Eyedropper Tool the frontmost (bringing it above Color Theme tool).
That will also make it remain the default from thereon and will cease to be an annoyance to you.
Hope this is helpful.

Could we please somehow disable the Color Theme Tool? I am a professional designer, not a child from a kindergarten, could I make the Eyedropper Tool the default one forever please? It is very annoying to switch it back again and again and again.
