Screenshot of an annotation with good default size (no-resizable) (77.65 KB, image/png)

Description José Aliste 2013-05-14 13:05:03 UTC 
Currently EvAnnotationWindow is a GtkWindow. The upside of this is that resizing and moving the window is easy (but the position of the window is not being respected, which is another bug) but Evince looses focus whenever the EvWindow is focused. We could look into making the EvAnnotationWindow another kind of widget, which is then a child of the EvView.

With the proper size I don't think we would need to resize the annotation window. What for?

I think we should aim to something like in the screenshot.  The window size is fixed and it is big enough to show short/medium-size comments.  It there is too much text, then we use a scrollbar and that is.

IMVHO, resizing could be added latter (iff really needed).
