Re: [evince] evince metadata defaults, esp. on windows 7

["Patrick Toche" <patrick toche free fr>]

Correction: window_maximized does NOT work, as first reported in the  
parent message.

Thus, the BUG is: default settings (may be related to "last-used-value"),  
window not maximized and not fully visible on screen (window location  
shifted in a down-right direction)

I made the .xml file "read-only" and that succeeded in preventing it from  
being overwritten when opening and closing pdf documents. As far as I  
could tell no other .xml file was created elsewhere, but that's difficult  
to ascertain. Unfortunately, even with the .xml file "read-only" the bug  
remained, and the window is neither maximized nor fully visible.

The only way to have Evince properly show a pdf document is to resize it  
manually once, it then remembers the settings (unless the .xml file is  
made read-only, in which case it won't remember). With thousands of pdfs  
in my database that is not a workaround I would consider.

If the default settings are not controlled by the .xml file, where can  
they be controlled? Evince\share\evince has some .xml files, but it wasn't  
immediately obvious if something in there could be tweaked to correct the  
problem.

Thanks for suggestions.
