Description pd 2018-01-14 10:59:01 UTC 
Hello,

let me first thank you for the wonderful program, I use it every day!

However, there is one annoyance that I have been struggling with and was unable to solve. When I open multiple PDFs and tick the View/Continuous mode in some and untick in others, the behavior is not local to the window. This is quite a problem when viewing simultaneously documents of different types.

Would it be possible to have an option which would allow me to choose whether settings apply to all instances or remain local to the window?

My version is 0.26.1 running in KDE 4.14.25.

Tabs in Okular a great, but:

The same problem occurs with tabs. I doesn't let me choose per tab if I want to view it continuous or not. This especially annoying when view lecture slides and eBooks at the same time in Okular.

My current Okular version is 1.6.2.

I just tried this in Version 1.7.3 and I can set individual cont. modes for each tab. 

Closing as FIXED
