<quote> Any reasons why this would not be fixable? </quote> Time. As always patches are welcome.

This is bug #165744. > The second issue (not allowing to continue highlighting from one page to the > next), seems like there might be a technical difficulty in implementing it, due > to the way that the docdata XML format for Okular stores annotations [...] No, issue is unrelated to that: okular could let you scroll and continue the selection to another page, but this would always result in the highlight split in the pages it selected; this is due to the fact that annotations, as designed in the PDF standard, are specific to a page, so they cannot span more than one. *** This bug has been marked as a duplicate of bug 165744 *** |
