Description Navneet Sankara 2009-07-08 12:08:47 UTC

Version:           Okular 0.8.2 (using KDE 4.2.90)
Installed from:    Ubuntu Packages

It would be useful to have more configuration options for the default behaviour of many of the annotations. 
Default values of opacity, width, font size, etc should be adjustable. 
Another thing is that the highlighting feature (very useful, btw!) should have a 2-column format. This could either be explicitly set by the user or preferably inferred from the file itself (may be by looking for a vertical "blank" line in the middle of the page, say).

This is actually a unrelated request, but the answer is easy: highlight annotations are bound to the text, therefore they automatically adapt to the layout of what you're highlighting. If you have a document where the highlighter fails to detect the layout, please open a new bug about it.

Thank you for caring about Okular :)
