Summary: possible to remove/hide/compress the sidebar in okular?
Product: okular
Version: unspecified
Platform: SuSE RPMs
OS/Version: Linux
Status: UNCONFIRMED
Severity: wishlist
Priority: NOR
Component: general
AssignedTo: okular-devel kde org
ReportedBy: bastisemail yahoo de
Version: (using KDE 4.0.2)
Installed from: SuSE RPMs
What I basically do is to eopen bug
https://bugs.kde.org/show_bug.cgi?id=151205, but I do not have any idea how to
eopen it, so I open a new report:
I agree with the previous poster that the bar takes too much space in x
direction. It also does not look very good to me (though that may be my
personal asthetic feeling). There is too much noise on the bar (too many frames
visible).
I agree with the previous poster that using QToolBox was visually much more
appealing. For the arguments against it:
o I agree with the keyboard issue tough couldn't that be added to Qt? Moreover:
This is a design issue of Okular - The left bar is supposed to be a "toolbar" -
which is meant by definition to simplify user commands by mouse while all
functions must remain available using the menubar. Ergo: Not the keyboard
control of QToolBox is mssing, but the respective commands in the menu (I
checked it right now and can not find it here using Okular on KDE 4.0.2).
o I agree that certain styles may remove more space, but this is (a) a minority
and (b) the horizontal space is (at least for me) much more important that the
vertical space. I use a fairly large zoom when reading scientific
online-articles all the time requiring space in x-direction!
I also do not know why the Kate-style bar with vertical tabs is not considered
as an option. This is still better than the current solution though I prefer
QToolBox.
