Description Joel Uckelman 2014-02-21 12:59:50 UTC

Description of problem:

When the displayed PDF is wider than evince's window, Ctrl+Home and Ctrl+End move the current page horizontally left and right, respectively, instead of jumping to the beginning and end of the document. (It seems like the horizontal and vertical axes got reversed for the hotkeys.)

"First Page" and "Last Page" in the menu with the gear icon on its button do work correctly.


Version-Release number of selected component (if applicable):

evince-3.10.3-1.fc20.x86_64


How reproducible:

Always.


Steps to Reproduce:
1. evince some.pdf
2. Make the window narrower than the document.
3. Ctrl+Home
4. Ctrl+End

Actual results:

Document jumps all the way left, then all the way right.


Expected results:

Document jumps to the beginning, then to the end.


Additional info:

So far as I remember, this did not happen with the version of evince in Fedora 18. (I skipped Fedora 19, so I can't say what that version of evince did.)

Comment 1 Sara L. Uckelman 2014-02-21 13:01:46 UTC

When the window is wider than the PDF being displayed, ctrl + home and ctrl + end simply do nothing.  (Also always reproducible).

Comment 2 Sara L. Uckelman 2014-02-21 13:16:21 UTC

Ignore the previous comment; the window I had wasn't quite wide enough.

Comment 3 Joel Uckelman 2014-03-12 10:34:13 UTC

And bizarrely, Home and End (no CTRL) do work for going to the beginnings and ends of documents.

Comment 5 Fedora End Of Life 2015-05-29 11:00:23 UTC

This message is a reminder that Fedora 20 is nearing its end of life.
Approximately 4 (four) weeks from now Fedora will stop maintaining
and issuing updates for Fedora 20. It is Fedora's policy to close all
bug reports from releases that are no longer maintained. At that time
this bug will be closed as EOL if it remains open with a Fedora  'version'
of '20'.

Package Maintainer: If you wish for this bug to remain open because you
plan to fix it in a currently maintained version, simply change the 'version' 
to a later Fedora version.

Thank you for reporting this issue and we are sorry that we were not 
able to fix it before Fedora 20 is end of life. If you would still like 
to see this bug fixed and are able to reproduce it against a later version 
of Fedora, you are encouraged  change the 'version' to a later Fedora 
version prior this bug is closed as described in the policy above.

Although we aim to fix as many bugs as possible during every release's 
lifetime, sometimes those efforts are overtaken by events. Often a 
more recent Fedora release includes newer upstream software that fixes 
bugs or makes them obsolete.

Comment 6 Joel Uckelman 2015-06-25 15:13:32 UTC

This appears to be fixed in evince-3.16.1-2.fc22.x86_64.
