            Bug ID: 501863
           Summary: okular ignore setting "Open in continuous mode by
                    default"
    Classification: Applications
           Product: okular
           Version: 24.12.2
          Platform: Debian unstable
                OS: Linux
            Status: REPORTED
          Severity: normal
          Priority: NOR
         Component: general
          Assignee: okular-devel at kde.org
          Reporter: amubtdx at gmail.com
  Target Milestone: ---

SUMMARY
When opening a new PDF that okular never seen before (so no file specific
settings), the view mode always has "Continuous" disabled despite the setting
"Open in continuous mode by default" being set.

So on every new PDF I open with Okular, I need to enable the Continuous mode
manually.

STEPS TO REPRODUCE
1. Open Okular and enable setting "Open in continuous mode by default" in menu
"Settings -> Configure Okular"
2. Open a new PDF that Okular has never seen before. The PDF is a normal single
column PDF.
3. Check "Continous" mode: in the toolbar, click on "View mode", "Continuous"
should be checked but is not.
4. Scroll pages, when switching pages it jump to the next page, meaning
"Continuous" mode is effectively disabled.

OBSERVED RESULT

3. Check "Continous" mode: in the toolbar, click on "View mode", "Continuous"
should be checked but is not.
4. Scroll pages, when switching pages it jump to the next page, meaning
"Continuous" mode is effectively disabled.

EXPECTED RESULT

Openning a new PDF should set "Continuous" mode by default if  "Open in
continuous mode by default" is set.
