I just found out that this problem has been reported before and there was an attempt to fix this in bug 388952. I'm not sure if that changes made it already into Okular 1.10.0, but if these changes are in fact in Okular 1.10.0 the fix did not work. Bug 341318 is related to this, there saving continuous view for every document is described. One more comment, sorry for the incremental information: In bug 388952 it was claimed that these changes made it into 1.7.3 so it seems that the problem is not fixed yet. Others state that different settings for Continuous mode work in their Okular. How do the other view modes work for you (Single Page, Facing Pages, ...)?

This sounds more serious. I never noticed such behaviour. I had similar bugs while moving the Continuous option to the View Mode submenu, but I fixed them as far as I could test. Can you make a screencast, so the problem is clear?

Screencast: Okular continous view bug
I created a screencast of the page lockup and attached it to this issue. Your screencast makes it clear, thanks. I would describe it as: When I toggle Continuous in another window, the PageView in the first window freezes. When I continue toggling in the other window, PageView eventually unfreezes. Did you observe other kinds of “The first window should act strange”? Right now I don’t have an idea what could cause this. There are more changes planned to scrolling, so I will not investigate yet. (Besides having little time.) |
