Description oleg motygin 2010-12-22 00:34:00 UTC

Version:           unspecified (using KDE 4.5.0) 
OS:                Linux

The new (comparing to Kdvi) keybinding for inverse search from dvi (Shift+Left mouse button) seems to be very inconvenient for me.

Imagine you are browsing through a dvi file and find a point to return to the tex source in the text editor.

In Kdvi: without taking your eyes off the screen, you click on two buttons of mouse and get to the text editor. Instantly.

With the new keybinding in Okular: you take your eyes off the screen to the keyboard to find Shift and press the button, turn you eyes back to the screen and finally click. It is, definitely, non-ergonomic and slower manipulation.

I would be very glad if it could be possible to have the old keybinding (Left+Right mouse buttons) as an alternative to the existing one.

Reproducible: Always
