           Summary: Show kpdf (from KDE 3.5) icon in taskbar if okular is
                    using PDF backend
           Product: okular
           Version: unspecified
          Platform: Compiled Sources
        OS/Version: Linux
            Status: NEW
          Severity: wishlist
          Priority: NOR
         Component: general
        AssignedTo: okular-devel kde org
        ReportedBy: pfeifle kde org


Version:            (using KDE Devel)
Installed from:    Compiled sources
Compiler:          doesn't matter doesn't matter

If okular window is minimized (and thus becomes a button in the task bar), it is only its generic icon that is used on the button there.

Leaving aside that that icon IMHO isn't very good usability-wise (it doesn't "stand out" in small sizes, looking very similar to some other very small icons too, being some kind of white/light-grey blotch only... no insult to the artist, though -- I'm only relaying my own personal impression to you):

since okular is meant to be a universal viewer application, and users may have open different instances of okular with a different file type opened in each, they do have no quick access to each window by the use of distinguishing icons that reflect the currently displayed file type. The "old" KPDF icon is *very* well distinguishable even in the smallest sizes.
