Description Miha 2013-11-10 18:29:24 UTC 
When I open a pdf document and left-click on it, the scrub bar for moving around and bookmarking usually doesn't appear (nothing happens). The probability of scrub bar appearing is dependant on the location of the click: when I click on pure text, it never appears, while when I click on image in a pdf file, it sometimes does appear, more often for colorful images (embedded jpg?), less often for plots and diagrams.

Document [1] has all kinds of different images and sometimes scrub bar appears and sometimes it doesn't.

Version used: today's git version built with jhbuild.

See bug 719444 for some additional information.
Comment 2 Miha 2013-12-28 19:18:12 UTC 
I changed severity to major (btw, does anyone pay attention to severity?) because it is impossible to navigate larger documents without scrub bar and thus Gnome Documents is useless for anything with more than 5 pages.

Some developers rely on these heavily; others don't.  Everyone's always busy. Major seems correct for this bug. Thanks for reporting!

Looks like the EvView widget has started to emit spurious 'selection-changed' signals even when there is nothing selected and the selection has not changed. This breaks the logic that tries to figure out if the user just clicked the document or whether she selected something.

I think the correct fix for this would be to solve bug 720518
