Dear All,

I often open PDF documents in deeply nested directory structures and I often make annotations (underline, comments) that I want to save in the original PDF itself. Thus, I need to use "Save As". However, the menu I get ALWAYS gives me the ~/Documents directory as the place to save the PDF. This is painful, since it forces me to navigate to the original directory. Is there a way to have Okular offer the "Save As" directory be the directory of the original document?

Example of what happens:
- I open ~/d1/d2/d3/f1.pdf
- when I do Save As, I am offered ~/Documents/f1.pdf
- I need to go to ~/d1/d2/d3 to have it saved as f1.pdf.

Example of what I'd like:
- I open ~/d1/d2/d3/f1.pdf
- when I do Save As, I am offered ~/d1/d2/d3/f1.pdf


I have checked other KDE applications, such as Kate, and they do behave in the way I'd like (in the example above, if I open ~/d1/d2/d3/f1.txt, the "Save As" goes to ~/d1/d2/d3/f1.pdf) so I do not think this is a general setting.

In case it matters, I am running Debian (mix of unstable and testing), with Okular just built from sources (Version 0.16.60, KDE 4.8.4) with libpoppler 0.20.5.

Thanks,

R.

Given that Kate and other applications behave correctly, this is probably a minor issue within the Okular code base. I would suggest filing a feature request asking for this to be implemented.

Done. Thanks,

R.
