toon.peperm...@hotmail.com changed: What |Removed |Added ---------------------------------------------------------------------------- CC| |toon.peperm...@hotmail.com --- Comment #7 from toon.peperm...@hotmail.com --- I am simply astonished something like this hasn't been implemented years ago. It can't be difficult: Okular can remember whether the navigation panel was open or not in the last session, and Okular can remember the position and even zoom of a specific document. Now it has to be a simple step to add "ShowLeftPanel=false" or "ShowLeftPanel=true" to the xml files in /home/user/.local/share/okular/docdata In those files there already is something like: <views> <view name="PageView"> <zoom value="1.25" mode="0"/> </view> </views>" While in /home/user/.config/okularpartrc I find: [Main View] ShowLeftPanel=false (when the navigation panel is open, however, there isn't "ShowLeftPanel=true", but just nothing, maybe this should change) Why not add this to the individual document files? I tried to change an xml file myself, but that didn't work. The next step (I suppose more difficult) is to remember which of the panels (thumbnails or contents) was opened. All this is standard behavior in Adobe Acrobat Reader DC on Windows 7, do you think Adobe is getting lots of angry emails about this? It's also standard behavior on the new WPS pdf reader. Just to make clear my personal user case: I generally read pdf text files (or djvu or epub, thank you very much for adding these file types to Okular), so the thumbnails panel is mostly useless for me. The contents panel is very handy however, but not every pdf has contents, and sometimes these 'contents' are IMG_0001, IMG_0002, etc. In those cases I don't need a navigation panel at all. So Okular remembering for each file if the panel was open or not is very useful to me. -- You are receiving this mail because: You are watching all bug changes.
