GNOME Bugzilla – Bug 601433
First and last page not drawn if sliding towards it
Last modified: 2009-11-15 10:28:51 UTC
When scrolling from a page somewhere in between to either the first page or the last page you will be told to have ended on the first or the last page, but you will see the second or second last page. Some actions, like clicking, could make the real first or last page show, sometimes just waiting is enough. In order to trigger the bug, you have to have the View option 'Best Fit' set to enabled or have a zoom level of 100% or higher. View options Continuous and Presentation should be disabled. Toggling the side bar, fullscreen and even dual don't seem to matter. Suggested ways to move to the first or last page, the 'suspected ones': -Page Up/Down -Scrolling -Using the sidebar This rather weird bug comes to you from Launchpad and was reported against Ubuntu 9.10. It was originally reported by Malte Helmert. Although there have been several people that couldn't confirm the bug, Malte Helmert, a friend of him and someone else were able to do so. Malte Helmert says he thinks he gets the problem more frequently when I'm attaching the PDF presentation and a screenshot the original reporter provided. Attached to the original report, if you need it, is the Xsession-errors file and detailed information about the system. The version the bug was confirmed with is evince 2.28.1-0ubuntu1. https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/evince/+bug/480027

Confirmed on Evince 2.29.1 (git master) and Poppler 0.12.0 (git master). I sum up: - View: Best fit or 100% (or more) - Not in "Continuous mode" nor "Presentation mode" Then, scroll up and down. You won't be able to reach slide 1 and 10 anymore. I can add another strange thing, when clicking on the "Forward" and "Backward" icons at the bottom right of the slide, you will get the message: ** (evince:7627): WARNING **: Unimplemented named action: GoForward, please post a bug report in Evince bugzilla (http://bugzilla.gnome.org) with a testcase.
Fixed in git master and gnome-2-28 branch. Thanks for reporting.
