Description Alexander Potashev 2018-01-15 11:42:55 UTC
Go->Back gets you to wrong position after following internal link.

Steps to reproduce:

 1. Download/open a PDF with internal links, e.g. https://www.iab.com/wp-content/uploads/2016/04/VAST4.0_Updated_April_2016.pdf
 2. In VAST4.0_Updated_April_2016.pdf, go to page 22.
 3. Scroll down a little, so that Okular view is *not* positioned at the beginning of the page.
 4. Click on one of the links "2.3.6.3" on the page -> it gets you to the section "2.3.6.3 VAST Error Codes Table" on the same page 22.
 5. Click Go->Back in the Okular menu. Okular somehow gets me to the beginning of page 21. I expected it go to the middle of page 22 - where I was before clicking Go->Back.

I see that there are some fixes scheduled for 20.12 (Bug 414701). Just rising awareness that this bug could be already fixed in the upcoming release.
