--- Comment #16 from Andrew Rasmussen <andyras at gmail.com> ---
I think my problem is the same as described by others, but the conditions under
which I first encountered the bug are slightly different.

When I am using okular to view a .pdf that will update (for example as the
viewer when using Kile/LaTeX to make a document) and the 'Trim Margins' option
is turned on, the .pdf scrolls itself when it updates.

For example: I am viewing a .pdf with the window sized to fit one page, and the
view is aligned to the top of page x.  If the document updates, it will scroll
itself so that the middle of the view is right between pages x and (x+1).  If I
use the 'Next Page' button (mapped to right arrow for me), it jumps to the
middle of the next pages (between (x+1) and (x+2)) instead of the top of the
next page.  This continues with pressing 'Next Page' repeatedly.  The 'Previous
Page' button behaves normally and scrolls to the top of page x in this example.
 This action 'resets' the view so that moving to the previous/next page moves
properly to the top of pages in the document.

I get the same behavior when adjusting the size of the okular window.  It seems
that the bug is triggered whenever the view of the document is updated, so when
the document refreshes itself, when the window size is changed, or when moving
to the next page in a document.

This is frustrating because otherwise I love using kile/okular for building
documents, this is the one part of it that is not working smoothly.

I am running Arch Linux (64-bit), here is my version info:
Qt: 4.8.4
KDE Development Platform: 4.10.3
Okular: 0.16.3
It looks like it was compiled with GCC 4.8.0 20130502 (prerelease)

I am also running okular from within XFCE 4.10, if that matters.
