[Desktop-packages] [Bug 398816] Re: Key bindng for Back and Forward functionality
** Changed in: evince Status: Confirmed = Fix Released -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Desktop Packages, which is subscribed to evince in Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/398816 Title: Key bindng for Back and Forward functionality Status in Evince document viewer: Fix Released Status in “evince” package in Ubuntu: Triaged Bug description: Binary package hint: evince There's no key binding for back and forward mechanism; there isn't a menu item either. The only way to access it is to have the button placed on the toolbar. Usually, on wide-screen machines, people hide toolbars and such to maximize vertical space. Also, the ubiquitous keyboard bindings for back and forward is Alt+Left and Alt+Right (say, in Adobe reader). But in Evince this is assigned to rotating pages. Given that the latter is a least-used functionality, no only it's a wastage of key binding, but also does it cause confusion for users migrating from common programs like Adobe reader.

[Desktop-packages] [Bug 398816] Re: Key bindng for Back and Forward functionality
I agree with ijk that evince should provide keybindings (customizable, if possible) for as many functionalities as possible, and least for: * navigating through the history, * reaching the page number field.
