Public bug reported: 1.) I open a PDF document. 2.) I set my preferred view mode for it. 3.) I click on "Save current settings as default" 4.) I open a copy of the document (by clicking on the "Open a Copy" item).
5.) The copy is opened. Unfortunately, my preferred and saved setting have been ignored by evince and the document is displayed in a default (for me a quite odd) way. Some details: my preferred display regime is to utilise the PRECIOUS VERTICAL SPACE as much effectively as possible for the document CONTENT. I.e.: I turn off all toolbars. Only the bar with "File", "Edit", etc is shown. I use the "Best Fit" mode. I turn OFF the "Continuous" mode. In additions I turn off also the side bar. In 90% of situations I do not need sidebar and I always prefer keyboard over mouse.
