            Bug ID: 383652
           Summary: Okular stamp tool's custom image support could be more
                    discoverable
           Product: okular
           Version: 1.0.0
          Platform: Ubuntu Packages
                OS: Linux
            Status: UNCONFIRMED
          Severity: normal
          Priority: NOR
         Component: general
          Assignee: okular-devel at kde.org
          Reporter: pointedstick at zoho.com
  Target Milestone: ---

Okular 1.0.3 on Kubuntu 17.04

Currently, you can add a custom image to Okular's stamp tool by entering the
image's full path into the combobox. This UI is sub-optimal for the following
reasons:

1. The typical workflow for selecting images for some use involves a button
with text like "choose image" that opens a file chooser; many/most users would
never even think of entering a path into the box.
2. The user needs to be able to enter a valid file path, which is a challenging
task for many/most users, especially if the file or any intervening directories
contain spaces or symbols.
3. There is no feedback when an invalid path is entered or an image with an
unsupported file format is chosen. It just... doesn't work, but the invalid
path/file stays there in the combobox.

A standard "choose image" button that opens a file picker and populates the
combobox would be a very nice addition.
