This misfeature irritates me every time I have to use Evince. I can understand having the thing skip pages when it's ALREADY in fullscreen mode... but consider the current behavior:
I'm reading a PDF document while listening to music, and try to skip tracks.... what happens? Evince goes to the next page, so I have to manually go back, and possibly lose track of where I am reading. Now, I try to pause the music, and Evince hijacks my whole screen.... so I have to press F11 to un-fullscreen it. And when I try to resume the music, Evince does it again. What I think it should do: NOT take over play-pause, and only act on track-skip hotkeys when already in fullscreen mode. That way, you can still use it for "presentation mode". The ability to change pages with a remote makes sense. The ability to change from windowed to fullscreen (and not back again) does not make sense -- why not just start the presentation with the PDF fullscreen already? -- Evince hijacks global multimedia keys https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/263779 You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Desktop Bugs, which is a bug assignee. -- desktop-bugs mailing list desktop-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/desktop-bugs
