            Bug ID: 526885
           Summary: PDFs with forms re-trigger the forms notice on each
                    save
    Classification: Applications
           Product: okular
      Version First 26.08.2
       Reported In:
          Platform: CachyOS
                OS: Linux
            Status: REPORTED
          Severity: normal
          Priority: NOR
         Component: general
          Assignee: okular-devel at kde.org
          Reporter: kdebugs.collapse750 at passfwd.com
  Target Milestone: ---

DESCRIPTION
See title

STEPS TO REPRODUCE
1. Open a PDF containing forms
2. Do a change to the form
3. Save

OBSERVED RESULT
The forms notice re-appears even if it was discarded before and the
forms-editing mode is still active. Apart from being very annoying, with
certain zoom settings (e.g. page height) it actually reduces the applied zoom
level because the notice reduces the size of the viewport (since this triggers
a re-render this can be very expensive for large files).

EXPECTED RESULT
Once discarded for a certain document, the forms notice should not re-appear as
long as the document is still open.

SOFTWARE/OS VERSIONS

terminal window): CachyOS
KDE Plasma Version: 6.7.5
