Bug ID: 428031
Summary: Okular uses the most recent window dimensions without
regard to document dimensions
Product: okular
Version: 1.11.1
Platform: Debian testing
OS: Linux
Status: REPORTED
Severity: minor
Priority: NOR
Component: general
Assignee: okular-de...@kde.org
Reporter: gszymas...@short.pl
Target Milestone: ---
SUMMARY
When you open a document in Okular, its window has the same dimensions as the
most recently resized (or maximized) Okular window. This may be inconvenient if
you switch between documents of very different sizes. For example, you may want
a presentation/map/photo to fill most of your screen, while a text document
would be easily readable taking less than half of screen width. Another
example: you may want to read some documents with the sidebar enabled (and make
the window wider) and others without the sidebar (now the window is too wide).
The difference is even bigger when View→Trim View→Trim Margins is enabled, as
presentations/maps/photos often have relatively small margins.
STEPS TO REPRODUCE
1. Download <http://download.ros.org/downloads/ROScheatsheet.pdf>.
2. Open the file in Okular and resize it so that those tiny letters are
readable (make it 1500 px wide).
3. Download the KDE Frameworks Cookbook (PDF):
<https://share.kde.org/s/jqpMS4gPs3HoxLN>.
4. Open the file in Okular.
OBSERVED RESULT
The second Okular window is too wide, the letters are too big.
EXPECTED RESULT
(a) Okular does not remember window dimensions at all. For example, it can
simply fit the window size to the opened document width, with respect to
document’s resolution. That’s how mupdf 1.17 and gv 3.7.4 seem to work.
(b) Okular fits the window size to the document width (like above). If the
window is resized, Okular remembers the new dimensions and uses them the next
time this document is opened, like it already does with zoom levels (see
~/.local/share/okular/docdata/).
