Description x3ri7yz02 2009-09-17 06:47:33 UTC
Version:           0.8.4 (using 4.2.4 (KDE 4.2.4), Debian packages)
Compiler:          cc
OS:                Linux (i686) release 2.6.30-1-686

When using Okular's editor, it is possible to select various tools, for example a highlighter.  However, after a single click with this tool, the cursor reverts to normal functionality (ie, scroll page, move document etc).  This is counter intuitive and annoying - if you are highlighting as you read through, you have to continually re-select the tool you want to use.

Why not have a "cursor" option on the toolbar, and stay with the user's selected mode until user asks otherwise?
