SUMMARY In Okular popup annotations remain visible also when you scroll to other pages, creating confusion STEPS TO REPRODUCE 1. Open a multipage PDF 2. Highlight a word then click on it and write a popup annotation 3. scroll to the next page OBSERVED RESULT The popup is still there EXPECTED RESULT Popup should disappear and reappear only when you come back to the original page Also, would be useful to have a visual link between the annotation popup and the highlighted word.
> Popup should disappear and reappear only when you come back to the original page That's your opinion, i disagree.

If the user has 5 popup per page on a 5-pages document, the total is 25 popups that fill the space and the user cant understand which are relevant for the page on which he is working.
The user can close the popups they are not interested in viewing, no one forces them to have 25 popups open at the same time.
(In reply to Albert Astals Cid from comment #3) > The user can close the popups they are not interested in viewing, no one > forces them to have 25 popups open at the same time. The user has no indication to which page the annotation refers. It is simply a big mess that makes this functionality unusable. No pdf software behaves this way, there must be a reason, don't you think?
