Package: okular
Version: 4:4.4.5-2
Severity: wishlist
In Unix, all window managers allow you to choose something like "focus
under mouse" vs. "click to focus". Okular (and any number of other
programs) seems always to use "click to focus" to select between
e.g. the navigation frame and the document frame. This leads to
surprises when a habituated user clicks in the TOC to go to a section
within a document, then moves the mouse to the document and starts
pressing PgDown to scroll.
I suppose the "right" way to do this would probably be to ask the
window manager for the user's preference, but AFAIK there's no window
manager standard for exporting this feature.
Would it be possible to add to Okular one of the following?
1) Ask whether a couple of the most popular window managers are
running, and if it's one you recognise, use its focus preference,
and if it's not, go on to (2)?
2) Add the option in Settings?
Omega) Develop a standard that would let window managers export this
information.

Hi,
Okular behaves according to the KDE settings. You can change the default
behaviour in system settings, setting up « the focus is strictly under the
mouse », in windows behaviour.
So I am closing the bug. If you feel it's not resolved, please re-open it.
Regards,
Adrien
