            Bug ID: 443909
           Summary: Feature request: Horizontal Scroll Page
           Product: okular
           Version: 21.08.1
          Platform: Mint (Ubuntu based)
                OS: Linux
            Status: REPORTED
          Severity: normal
          Priority: NOR
         Component: general
          Assignee: okular-devel at kde.org

SUMMARY

I am reading material that has a multicolumn layout, or a book scanned from
facing pages. To read it I need to zoom in so that a column is legible, then
read down the page, then scroll up and to the right to find where the column
continues. The last part, scrolling right, is the difficulty. It would be nice
if there were a way to scroll left or right from the keyboard, (by screenfuls,
rather than the small increments given by arrow keys.)

STEPS TO REPRODUCE
1. Zoom in so that horizontal scrollbar is shown.
2. Press (e.g.) Home or End
3. Open Settings -> Keyboard Shortcuts and look for "Scroll Page Left" and
"Scroll Page Right"

OBSERVED RESULT

No effect in UI.
No such entries are listed in Keyboard Shortcuts.

EXPECTED RESULT

View should scroll left or right in increments of most the width of the
viewport (with some overlap).
The shortcuts should be configurable in Keyboard Shortcuts.

SOFTWARE/OS VERSIONS
Linux/KDE Plasma: Linux Mint 20.2 (Cinnamon desktop)
KDE Frameworks 5.86.0
Qt 5.15.3 (built against 5.15.3)
The xcb windowing system
