[Bug 801542] Re: Left panel status should be saved between sessions
I see. You are right, Ctrl+T do save the current settings (except for the window size though). I think this is not intuitive at all. Am I the only one to think so? I'm wondering if the behaviour should not be the opposite: dont show the panel by default. Or automatically display it only for documents with more than N pages (and possibly a configuration setting for N). Another question is, is PDF viewing an activity mostly done with different files (in which case the settings should be global), or are the files opened almost always the same (and then the current default is probably right). ** Changed in: evince (Ubuntu) Status: Incomplete = Opinion -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Desktop Bugs, which is subscribed to evince in Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/801542 Title: Left panel status should be saved between sessions To manage notifications about this bug go to: https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/evince/+bug/801542/+subscriptions -- desktop-bugs mailing list desktop-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/desktop-bugs
[Bug 286774] Re: cannot see text, only line art
The PDF uploaded by Enrique is displayed correctly by Evince 2.32.0 on Ubuntu 11.4. I think that this bug cannot see text, only line art could be closed. However, as reported Mechanical snail, when selecting text the display of selected text become garbage (not really garbage, as you can see on the attached screenshot; seems to be a problem of size and color...). But the selected text can be copied/pasted in a text editor correctly. If its an Evince bug -- and if it's not a problem during the creation of this PDF -- it'd be better reported by a new bug report. ** Attachment added: Capture-nordea-netpost-2.pdf.png https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/evince/+bug/286774/+attachment/2180251/+files/Capture-nordea-netpost-2.pdf.png -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Desktop Bugs, which is a bug assignee. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/286774 Title: cannot see text, only line art To manage notifications about this bug go to: https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/evince/+bug/286774/+subscriptions -- desktop-bugs mailing list desktop-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/desktop-bugs
[Bug 801542] [NEW] Left panel status should be saved between sessions
Public bug reported: The left panel (the one showing thumbnails, index, layers, etc.) is displayed by default when opening a PDF for the first time. If I hide it (F9), close Evince and re-open it with the same file, the panel is hidden. This is expected, OK. However, when I open a different file, the panel is displayed again. It seems that the display status of the panel is only saved for each files, and not as a global option. This is not consistent with the vast majority of other applications.

[Bug 801589] [NEW] Unable to mount Documents on iPhone Unhandled Lockdown error (-17)
Public bug reported: When I plug an iPhone, I get two popups prompting on how to use Music and Photos, but I also get a third popup warning about Unable to mount Documents on iPhone and Unhandled Lockdown error (-17) (see screenshot) The iPhone is mounted well, I can browse it throught Nautilus, and I can also use the music and photos stored on the iPhone without any problem. Its just an annoying popup, and I wondered what it means.

[Bug 372132] Re: Create Document Templates difficult to use
This bug is more than two years long, and still nothing has been done.
Maybe we forgot that the main focus of Ubuntu is to be simple and
intuitive. In this light, the empty Create Document menu is
frustrating for standard and new users (and even for advanced users, as
it seems according to many of the comments in this bug) and we should do
something to fix it. We can fix it quickly first, and then take the time
to re-thing about its expected feature in a second time.
So, as I see it, there is two succesives steps to do: an easy step to
quickly fix this bug, and a more extensive approach to rework the
feature itself.
* The Quick Easy step:
--
It would consists in using the current mecanism of Nautilus, and we just
need to create of a few empty files in ~/Templates to populate the
currently empty menu and fix this bug.
We could add inside ~/Templates some symlinks to /usr/share/default-
templates/{empty_files}. Doing so would still allow powerusers to add
their own templates/empty files next to these symlinks, and even remove
them.
The few default empty files to populate the Create Document menu could be:
- LibreOffice Writer.odt
- LibreOffice Calc.ods
- LibreOffice Impress.odp
And of course keep the current Empty File
Adding an option Edit My Templates... which would open Nautilus at
~/Templates is also a very nice idea.
We should also think of the translation of those entries. But using the
application's name for the files may help to avoid this problem (I don't
know about that, but at least on my French system, Writer, Calc and
Impress are used as-is and are not translated -- wether its a good think
or not is another problem)
This quick fix requires:
- to store a few templates in Nautilus package (or in its own
ubuntu-nautilus-templates package as suggested) located in
/usr/share/default-templates
- a mecanism to add the symlinks to users' ~/Templates directory if present
(they should be added only once, because users may want to remove them)
* The Long Best step:
--
(it requires a new bug to discuss and work on it)
bra10n and Vish's points of view are very correct in term of user
ergonomy IMHO. Nobody just wants to create a file without editing it (do
you?). Therefore the right-click menu would be much better if it could
be used to launch applications pre-opened with the chosen template
(would it be an empty file or a real template) and save the file (in the
current location) only after user has made changes and/or choose to save
it.
Contrary to the QuickEasy fix, this one do absolutely requires a non-
hidden ~/Templates directory because the files inside it would be real
templates made by the user for her own needs.
When viewing ~/Templates in Nautilus, it should display an info-bar
(like when viewing the Trash, as suggested Martin Lettner) to notify the
user that she can add her own template-files here in order to use them
from the right-click menu.
Also, we should not forget that some applications have their own
template system. For LibreOffice it is in
~/.libreoffice/3/user/template. This directory uses Open Document
Template format, and because of that cannot be used as-is for the
QuickEasy approach, but could be incorporated in this LongBest
thinkings.
Anyway, all this LongBest approach is not the answer to this very bug
(which is only: Create Document Templates difficult to use). It seems
to me that it's a new feature and requires its own thinking thread/bug.

seems to be unattended (nothing done from 2009?)
