Thanks for your bug submission. I have not noticed this problem with 4:3 displays. I do notice that evince remembers it's window size in gutsy. Perhaps there is a gnome desktop setting that limits the "super desktop" size so that it conforms to your widescreen display.
Marking as Confirmed. Reporter has demonstrated this behavior in 4 different Ubuntu versions. ** Changed in: evince (Ubuntu) Status: New => Confirmed -- evince starts larger than screen https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/126865 You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Desktop Bugs, which is subscribed to evince in ubuntu. -- desktop-bugs mailing list desktop-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/desktop-bugs
