I'm throwing this out again to see if anyone else agrees, but if it's not something you want to do, I'll understand.
It's not auto-detecting the finger.
You press the Hand button and Xournal goes in Pan mode and you pan around. Tap the Pen or other tool and you're back in Edit mode.

If you've got a specific idea, throw it in, we'll talk about it.

You're welcome
Sometimes I forget it's a note-taking tool and you usually use few colours to highlight / annotate text.
Now that I think about it, a new feature would be highlighters in different colours.

The Diablo version should come right after the Fremantle one will be released. I'll recompile it for Diablo and make the small inevitable changes I'll have to do.
