SUMMARY
When I'm reviewing academic work, I love to use Okular to annotate PDFs with my
suggestions for the author. I frequently use the Highlighter tool and pop-up
notes, which allow the user to include a comment in a box.
However, to see these comments, the user has to either:
- Position the mouse over the comment and wait a little until it shows as a
tooltip
- Double-click the comment so the comment box will open
- Right-click the comment in the sidebar and choose "Open pop-up note"
The sidebar in this case does not use its full potential, because it only shows
the type of annotation, but it would be great if it showed an excerpt of the
comment itself. It would be super useful to take a quick look at all comments
without having to click anywhere, as well as when searching existing comments.
See the attached image for more details.
