Bug ID: 411374
Summary: search on continuous view often mispositions search
for non-last column
Product: okular
Version: unspecified
Platform: Other
OS: Linux
Status: REPORTED
Severity: normal
Priority: NOR
Component: general
Assignee: okular-devel@kde.org
Reporter: gilbertd+...@treblig.org
Target Milestone: ---
SUMMARY
WHen you search for something the page the result is in is scrolled partially
to make sure the result is visible; however when you've got multiple pages
visible across this often results in you being able to see the bottom of the
page with the result text but the start of the next page is off the top.
I find this quite frustrating on huge documents/
STEPS TO REPRODUCE
1. Select continuous with facing pages or overview (for the example I used
facing)
2. Search for something near the bottom of a page that will appear in the left
column (e.g. in my example start at the bottom of the document and then search
for 'bottom of page 1')
OBSERVED RESULT
'bottom of page1' is visible part way up the screen, but the top of page 2
isn't visible because it's scrolled off the top
EXPECTED RESULT
I want to be able to carry on reading from the search point; so I think the
rule is:
a) If the window height allows a full page or more vertically and
b) The search result is not in the page in the last column
then scroll so that the top of the page with the search result is visible
(actually we're interested in the top of the next page but that's getting
complex)
