qpdfview

Page Blinks after highlights or annotations.

Asked by ubuntutefo

When I add a highlight and/or an annotation to a document, the current page automatically reload, causing a blink for a couple of seconds. This is very annoying, specially when you are reading and summarizing.
Is it possible to modify this behaviour?
Thanks!

Hello ubuntutefo,

unfortunately this not easy to change as it is due to the fact that the annotation's appearance is rendered by the Poppler library which does all the other rendering as well it currently has no API to get renderings without annotations and just of annotations so that qpdfview can do the compositing itself, but this currently discussed in the Poppler project.

Best regards,
Adam
