[Bug 329337] Re: Okular starts in full-screen mode, without toolbar if last used maximized

 

This still exists in later Okular versions, I have always had it in a
form or another, in that the toolbar goes missing, namely when Okular in
fullscreen is closed, but especially if a new Okular window is opened
while one is already opened in fullscreen.

Describing the bug as "Okular always in fullscreen" is misleading:the
problem is not that it opens fullscreen (that could be expected as the
last state is thus restored), but that the _toolbar is missing when not
in fullscreen_.

It can be reproduced often if the fullscreen Okular is closed by force
(e.g. hard reboot), but also very simply it happens like this:

- the option to open new documents in tabs is disabled
- a new Okular window is opened while one is already opened in fullscreen

As a practical fix, instead of deleting config files thus destroying all
toolbar customizations, which is not a definitive solution anyway:

- show the menu with Ctrl-M, then Settings > Toolbars shown > Main toolbar.
- or / and create a shortcut for showing/hiding toolbar. Okular supports one-key shortcuts (so that I can use C to toggle change of colors, F for fullsceen, T to show or hide toolbar etc).
