Package: evince Version: 2.22.2-4 Severity: wishlist With recent versions, evince introduced the new "feature" of blocking multiple successive keypresses in presentation mode. In my opionion, this behaviour is a major pain.
Of course I can see what this behaviour aims at, preventing people from unintentionally skipping over multiple slides. At least for me, however, that's a really rare thing, I know that I'm supposed to release the space bar again. And after all, there's a "back" button/keybinding too! On the other hand, it's not the first time I find myself rehearsing or skipping through a presentation. As an example, take a presentation created by LaTeX-beamer, where each "overlay" is one page in the PDF, so one "slide" can spread over multiple PDF pages. I would like to either see this behaviour removed entirely again, as I think it is very confusing when a keypress doesn't trigger any action. Another solution would be a configuration option or at least a gconf key.
