Description samuel 2010-04-01 12:17:19 UTC 
I am removing the toolbar by unticking the option
    View -> Toolbar
But the setting is not carried over when I open another instance of evince (after closing the first one). The last version of evince (2.28 I think) did carry over the settings.

I may try to make a patch for this annoyance, but I think the triviality will make my efforts redundant as I am not used to evince's codebase.

May I ask to have this bug re-opened?

This bug is not a duplicate. Here I am talking about the toolbar, the thing at the top under the menus. The sidebar does indeed stay opened, but this bug is about the toolbar.

If you need more information, do ask, I'm at ease to give you any information to help.

This bug (bug 614573) is not a duplicate of bug 606090.

I know, but the source of the problem is the same. This is a regression introduced by the migration of the metadata system to gio. We used to store global information (toolbar, window size, sidebar state, etc.) in the metadata system as last used settings. We can use gconf for that, but I thought it wasn't worth it, since we were going to migrate from gconf to gsettings during this release cycle. So, the idea is to use gsettings to store last used settings.

Thanks, it didn't seem obvious that those two bugs were related. I wanted to be point it out to be sure it would be correctly handled and I am now sure that it will be.

Thanks again for your prompt replies.
