    Hi,
    I use NAPS2 almost since forever and love it.
    But with the update to version 7.4.2.0 (or earlier) the behavior of saving PDF seems to have changed.

    • Before: CTRL + S only saved the selected scans.
    • Now: CTRL + S saves all scans into one PDF.

    In the Settings I already have chosen Save Selected under "Save" button default action.
    Is there any possibility to get the old behavior back?

    Thank you so much!

    Yeah, that shouldn't be the case, but in the meantime Ctrl+Shift+S will save selected.

      I like this behavior. I use this app for work, and needed to save separate groups of pages from a combined packet. When I pressed Ctrl+S, it saved all of them; and when I tried pressing Ctrl+Shift+S it saved the selection.

      It's intuitive for it to behave that way.

      ...and as I write this, I'm looking at appsettings.xml and find the following:

          <SavePDFAll>Ctrl+S</SavePDFAll>
          <SavePDFSelected>Ctrl+Shift+S</SavePDFSelected>
      

      so it appears you can customize this behavior to your liking. I'm currently on v8.6, for reference.

        That works perfect, thank you!
