            Bug ID: 345269
           Summary: Wish: allow quick selection of several colors for
                    drawing in presentation mode
           Product: okular
           Version: 0.21.60
          Platform: Compiled Sources
                OS: All
            Status: UNCONFIRMED
          Severity: wishlist
          Priority: NOR
         Component: general
          Assignee: okular-devel at kde.org
          Reporter: sander at igpm.rwth-aachen.de

In presentation mode I can draw on the slides, which is very helpful to make
presentations a bit more interactive.  The default color is red, and I know
that I can change that color somewhere in the preferences submenu.

For that, however, I have to quit presentation mode.  I would like to be able
to rapidly switch between a small (~5) number of colors directly in
presentation mode.  Ideally with a single click.
Having several colors would make my impromptu in-class drawings much easier to
understand.

I admit that I am not really sure how a good user interface for this would look
like.  In the presentation mode itself, having several copies of the pen icon
for the different colors would be ideal.  Then, for me, just having the
standard primary colors would be sufficient, but others will certainly want to
assign other colors to the pens.  Also, 4 colors for me is fine, but in general
one would probably want a configurable number of pens.  Not sure how to fit all
this into the preference dialog.

Reproducible: Always
