Description Syize 2024-12-26 09:36:46 UTC

SUMMARY
Recently there are a lot of times I opened a PDF file in okular but found okular open it in single page mode, although I have checked "open in continuous mode by default" in okular's settings. I also found the checkbox "Continuous" in the main toolbar is unchecked, which is weird because I never uncheck the checkbox.

I also found this phenomenon is unable to reproduce stably, which makes it more annoying. After I checked "Continuous" in the toolbar and closed the okular, it will open file in continuous page mode by default temporarily (maybe in the next few hours), but it will happen once again cause I have encountered this bug for around 5 times. 

STEPS TO REPRODUCE

This is the PDF file I opened in the screen record.

This is the PDF file I opened in the screen record. I opened this file by double click the corresponding info in Zotero and Zotero opened it in Okular (I let Zotero open PDF file in the system default app, which is Okular).

I have checked the issue 497715, and I think the problem in 497715 is the same as this issue. No need for duplicate bug report, I'll close this report.
