Description Claus Wilke 2005-03-26 23:29:45 UTC

Version:            (using KDE KDE 3.4.0)
Installed from:    SuSE RPMs

I just upgraded to KDE 3.4. Kpdf has improved greatly! Thanks for the good work.

However, a minor quibble that prevents me from using kpdf for presentations: I cannot change slides with page up, page down. Instead, I have to use the left and right arrow keys. The problem is that most of the remote controls available (i.e., http://www.kensington.com/html/4390.html ) send page up, page down commands.

I think that by default, kpdf should react to these commands in presentation mode.

An additional suggestion: The kensington also has a third button that sends the letter 'b'. In powerpoint, this can be used to black out the screen. You could consider implementing this as well.

Obey page up and page down keys in presentation mode
For the 'b' key thing open another wish report; remember 1 issue per bug report.
