That's not the kind of answer you should give to an end user who use your application and is giving you a suggestion. <br>If i write to the okular developers list, I assume to talk with the people who develop/have developed okular. So I'm saying that when you develop okular and implement new features, you may also consider to implement this one. Or are you saying that no one can make a suggestion to you if he does not have the patch ready? If i had the "time and
knowledge to code a solution", wouldn't I had come here with the solution?<br>An "Unfortunately we can no more code new features to okular due to lack of time. If you want, you can help us and do it yourself because it's open source" would have been more than fine to me. I'm not requiring anyone to code anything for me, I'm only suggesting to the people who develop a software how to make that software even better. But your answer sounds more like "Hey, what do you want? I have already coded a lot, and for free! Why in the hell don't you do so too???". And that kind of a "do it yourself" answer to a suggestion is all but appropriate. And no, I have not the patch ready, nor for okular neither for your inappropriate answers.<br>

</div></div>You are not the first with this problem, the question is, do you have time and<br>
