2014-09-08 07:07:07 palookabutt description Using evince version 3.10.3 on Ubuntu 14.04. Tried every way I could think to change the default settings to remove the sidebar and set default view to fit-width. 1. Used dconf Editor to ensure show-sidebar and show-toolbar was deselected and sizing-mode was set to fit-width (see attached screenshot). 2. Created a new PDF file. I opened the file and saw that the sidebar was still there and sizing was fit-page. 3. Used Save Current Settings As Default to save the settings 4. Used File -> Close to close the file 5. Opened the file in Evince again and the sidebar was still there and sizing was still fit-page. I would have attached a second screenshot but the website doesn't allow more than one. I have scanned the internet for this bug, but most responses were for much older versions and/or claimed to be resolved, though I couldn't find an explanation of how they were resolved. The closest thing I could find was a complaint about viewing size being saved at 80% instead of 100%. Using evince version 3.10.3 on Ubuntu 14.04.
