Description Enda 2012-08-07 16:21:47 UTC

When the mouse pointer is hovered over the scroll-bar, can
there be a tooltip which indicates what percentage way down the
document is currently?

Reproducible: Always

What's the point of that? The scrollbar gives you that information.

(In reply to comment #1)
In Emacs or Vim (using Ctrl+G), I am used to seeing exactly what percentage way down the document is currently.

Comment 3 Albert Astals Cid 2012-08-10 18:20:20 UTC

Because they don't have a scrollbar :-)

Now find me a gui program that does what you are asking

gVim: the GUI for Vim  :)

I have not come across a GUI program that does what I said in comment #0 (that I am aware of).

Comment 6 Albert Astals Cid 2012-08-13 16:02:38 UTC

gvim does not do what you are asking for. gvim has a statusbar entry that shows the percentage, that's totally different than a tooltip in the scrollbar.

I am sorry but until that becomes standard practice for GUI applications i'm not implementing that in Okular
