            Bug ID: 456732
           Summary: more configuration settings?
           Product: okular
           Version: 22.04.3
          Platform: Other
                OS: Linux
            Status: REPORTED
          Severity: wishlist
          Priority: NOR
         Component: general
          Assignee: okular-devel at kde.org
          Reporter: dchmelik at gmail.com
  Target Milestone: ---

SUMMARY
Okular has scant configuration settings.

OBSERVED RESULT
Okular has scant configuration settings.  Whenever I open a PDF, I always have
to change the fit option to page or auto, because 'fit width' usually isn't any
good (any more than 'fit height' would be, but should be option.)  Users should
have option to save their fit setting rather than being forced to use width
every time.

EXPECTED RESULT
Have better default fit (i.e., 'fit page' or 'auto fit' depending what
difference is) and allow users to save that (and probably other) option
configuration.

SOFTWARE/OS VERSIONS
Linux/KDE Plasma: Slackware64 15.1-current &Neon 5.25 GNU/Linuxes
KDE Plasma Version: 5.25.3
KDE Frameworks Version: 5.96.0
Qt Version: 5.15.4

ADDITIONAL INFORMATION
My family and I use 16:10 to 16:9 monitors including my 4K, for which I
typically snap Okular to one screen-half side so it's 1920x2160 (or would be
longer if I can get a 4:3 to 16:10 4K) so Okular is always taller than any
standard book-shaped (A4, USA letter, etc.) PDF so forced 'fit height' is
time-wasting.  I need to be able to save 'fit page' or 'auto fit'--whichever is
better (I don't) know as a permanent configuration setting so 99% PDFs are
viewable/readable, and it'd be good if the option works when paging down (for
A4 and USA letter) instead of current behaviour it doesn't page down an exact
page so every some dozens of pages is quite a few pixel lines offset (so shows
a small section of a different page) and you have to recentre on the current
page.
