Description Caihok+nofeeCh 2010-03-06 11:25:38 UTC
When i am viewing a document (in my case: http://spivey.oriel.ox.ac.uk/mike/zrm/zrm.pdf) in "best fit" non-continuous mode and select an entry from the index, evince...

- switches to the corresponding page (no problem so far) 

- and changes the mode to something else (depending on what kind of item i select)

non-continuous mode stays on.

i am running evince 2.28.1.

what i would like to see is that the view mode stays in best fit, because when i now scrolling ends at the bottom of the page instead of switching to the next like in best fit. so everytime i switch to another bookmark i have to adjust the view settings afterwards.

i can not reproduce this with other documents and i don't know enough about the pdf format to be sure this is not a problem of the format itself or just a bad file, but i would really appreciate it if this could be disabled, as i often use evince for looking up details, so i switch pages by index quite often.

thanks for your attention.

This is not a bug, the outline links are FitH destinations that accoding to the PDF spec:

"Display the page designated by page, with the vertical coordinate top
 positioned at the top edge of the window and the contents of the page
 magnified just enough to fit the entire width of the page within the
 window"

Acroread does exactly the same. 

Thanks for reporting.
