Dear Evince project members,
I would like to suggest a little improvement of Evince. Actually, it's
impossible to display more than one slide (lets say two, eventually
three )in real full screen mode - I mean the mode presentation using
F5 (and not F11). The advantage of using de F5 mode rather than the
F11 is a greater size of the display, (since the upper toolbar is
absent in the F5 mode) and the changing of slides is slide by slide.
This whish has been reported several times on the web, and people who
absolutely want this option actually use Adobe Acrobat Reader, non
free of course.Would one of you like to add this fonctionnality ? I
would be glad to do this myself, but I actually don't know how to
do.Sorry for the poor level of my English, I am from France.

In Evince 3.x, the Full Screen Mode (F11) uses the whole space
available.  There is currently a bug to handle the toolbar [1], which I
think should be fixed instead of adding a workaround to the Presentation
Mode (F5).

As a side note, I just tried Acrobat Reader (in Linux), and I could not
make it show two pages in full screen. It always changed from dual to
single page when switching to full screen.
