https://bugs.kde.org/show_bug.cgi?id=306886 Jonathan changed: What|Removed |Added CC||jonat...@imatix.com --- Comment #8 from Jonathan --- Hear hear! This issue is another example of a broader problem in the Okular UI in the over-use of modes, and inconsistency in the operation in different modes. This is particularly annoying when you need to switch often between modes. I raised earlier this year some problems of inconsistency in the Okular UI https://mail.kde.org/pipermail/okular-devel/2016-February/022421.html I have also submitted a trivial review request that without breaking any currently working function eliminates one annoying inconsistency between selection modes: https://git.reviewboard.kde.org/r/127496/ I've had zero response to the review request. How do people feel about starting a broader discussion about these issues in the Okular UI? Even a working group perhaps? I'd certainly be keen to get the ball rolling. -- You are receiving this mail because: You are watching all bug changes.

https://bugs.kde.org/show_bug.cgi?id=306886 Harold changed: What|Removed |Added CC||spam.inscript...@free.fr --- Comment #7 from Harold --- I know that this bug has been inactive for quite a long time, but I agree with the comment of the original author. I started recently to use Okular in order to replace Evince and I love everything in Okular except the browsing/selection tool. I find very annoying to have to change between the two modes every time. I feel that the strategy adopted by Evince is much simpler: middle button to browse, and left button to select. We find this behaviour in other softwares (Firefox for example), and in general the left button is reserved to selection (text editors). I understand that merging the two tools could be a prejudice for those who are accustomed to them, but having another mode would be very useful. -- You are receiving this mail because: You are watching all bug changes.
