[bug] Non appearing bottom toolbars bug.

[avada]

Hi!
Hope it's the proper place to report a bug. If you're viewing a PDF full screen switch to another window (explorer, total commander) to open a pdf, without exinting full screen. The opened PDF won't have a status bar if you exit full screen mode. It seems the pdf shouldn't be in the history, and the bug doesn't happen if you the file open dialog.

Hi avada,

thanks for the post. I tried doing what you described and initially saw the same. For me it was the navigation tool-bars at the bottom (Document Options Toolbar, Pages Navigation Toolbar, Pages Layout Toolbar, Launch Toolbar) that were missing.

What I did was to explicitly enable them in the new tab where they were missing, the, with all my tabs having all the tool-bars enabled I closed the Viewer. Closing the viewer forces it to save the current settings. Opening the Viewer, going full screen and dragging a PDF to it subsequently showed the Navigation Toolbars as expected.

Thanks for bringing this to our attention, given that the issue is (at least for me ) correctable by closing the Viewer in the state you want I suspect this will not likely get 'fixed' in the 2.5 series of the Viewer.

cheers

Yeah... I mixed them up. I have the status bar disabled. It's kind of annoying though, so I'm hoping for a fix sooner than later. Usually closing the file and re-opening them helps. (Perhaps when I have a document open from earlier on another tab and which has toolbars? Not sure.) But sometimes it doesn't and I have to re-enable those toolbars manually.

Hi avada,

I can understand the annoyance. Ultimately the decision will be with the development team leader.

Any progress on this?
(Is the bugtracker publicly viewable?)

Hi avada,

all our development focus in on the new Editor/ viewer replacement. I understand that you would like to see this fixed in the 2.5 series but we have to balance the needs of that against small fixes to what will soon be replaced. I'm afraid this is not likely to be fixed in the 2.5 series.

We do not have an externally accessible ticket system, it's internal only I'm afraid.

Sorry that this is not what you wanted to hear, I hope you can appreciate the reasoning here.

regards

Okay. Any alpha/beta/dev builds available?
