            Bug ID: 430707
           Summary: Expose view settings as command line flags
           Product: okular
           Version: unspecified
          Platform: Other
                OS: All
            Status: REPORTED
          Severity: wishlist
          Priority: NOR
         Component: general
          Assignee: okular-devel at kde.org
          Reporter: nidi at mailbox.org
  Target Milestone: ---

It'd be useful to directly set view options (e.g. "fit page" or "view mode ->
facing pages" and alike) as command line options.

Use case:

I'm regularly opening different kinds of PDF documents from the command line,
also many documents at once. After opening I need to manually set those view
options on each of the documents - it'd be great to do this with a command line
flag instead.

I'm aware of the fact that this would introduce quite a lot of new command line
flags, but I don't think this would be much of an issue.

I don't know whether there are any standards in the KDE world which could be
adopted. E.g. dolphin has a `--split` command line argument which makes dolphin
start in split mode.

Thanks for considering!
