Description Ben Guy-Williams 2021-05-16 03:01:33 UTC 
SUMMARY


STEPS TO REPRODUCE
1. Open a document with Okular
2. Open other documents in new tabs.
3. Try to view two documents side by side.

OBSERVED RESULT

Unable to find the option to 1. tear off a tab to create a new window or 2. Move a tab to a new window or 3. Split window to view two or more tabs side by side or as a 4x4 grid.

These options would appear to be a 'standard' for desktop apps - though some do not behave.

EXPECTED RESULT


Operating System: Manjaro Linux
KDE Plasma Version: 5.21.4
KDE Frameworks Version: 5.81.0
Qt Version: 5.15.2
Kernel Version: 5.12.1-2-MANJARO
OS Type: 64-bit
Graphics Platform: X11
Processors: 4 × Intel® Core™ i3-4130 CPU @ 3.40GHz
Memory: 7.7 GiB of RAM
Graphics Processor: Mesa DRI Intel® HD Graphics 4400

ADDITIONAL INFORMATION

Concerning 3.:

If you want the tiles to show the same document, with synchronized annotations etc. and only one sidebar, that is Bug 169847.

If you want the tiles to show different documents, but have only one sidebar that shows e. g. the table of contents of the last activated document, that may also be Bug 169847, but I think that option is currently not considered.

If you want the tiles to show different documents, each with an own sidebar, that was already discussed in Bug 169847. I think we agreed that you are supposed to place smaller Okular windows in the desired layout.

Concerning 1. and 2., and also needed for the last option:

If you want to move tabs to/from new windows, that is Bug 339971.

I close this one, because bug reports are supposed to describe only one issue, and these appear to be at least two issues.
