Bug ID: 380330 Summary: Bookmarks disconnected after path change Product: okular Version: 0.25.0 Platform: Other OS: Linux Status: UNCONFIRMED Severity: normal Priority: NOR Component: general Assignee: okular-devel@kde.org Reporter: jfd5...@gmail.com Target Milestone: --- Created attachment 105767 --> https://bugs.kde.org/attachment.cgi?id=105767&action=edit Okular Bookmarks Screenshot I created a new bug, even though I recognize this bug is tightly linked to Bug 158837. The reason I'm documenting this as a new bug is because I am _NOT_ highlighting this as a readability issue from the sidebar. In fact, I don't even use the sidebar normally, until I started investigating this issue. >From my perspective, following a change to the path (either file name, or a changed directory), the bookmarks are completely lost (!). Now, I have since learned that they are not in-fact lost, but instead simply disconnected to my updated file name. The issue is not readability. The issue is that I may not want to bother bookmarking future PDF files in future. File name and path name changes occur _all the time_. You can't see them all in the attached screenshot, but I have about 20 bookmarks in that one research paper. I have to re-link them individually or just re-create them anew, which is probably easier. This is a major nuisance. Had I not researched this bug, as an ordinary user I would have not understood why my bookmarks just disappeared from the Bookmarks menubar for no apparent reason. Since path changes are commonplace in my typical workflow, it makes me wonder whether okular bookmarks are worth using at all. -- You are receiving this mail because: You are the assignee for the bug.
