Description Lukas 2020-08-19 15:38:48 UTC

SUMMARY
About half the documents I open with Okular are single-page figures and plots generated, for example, with Matplotlib. In theses cases it would be convenient to have keyboard shortcuts or buttons in the toolbar for switching to the previous or next PDF in the same directory.

STEPS TO REPRODUCE
1. Open single-page PDF figure (e.g., some vector graphic) from a folder that has several other PDF figures

OBSERVED RESULT
Nothing happens if I press the arrow keys or page up/down. (These keys should probably stay reserved to the current multi-page functionality.)

EXPECTED RESULT
Buttons in toolbar or file listing in a sidebar tab or an easy-to-remember key combination for flipping through documents in the same folder (e.g., Ctrl+left/right?).
