If someone knows how to disable this fuckery, please tell me or i have to install adobe acrobat, it makes me crazy as it floats on all the open PDFs, covering text/content

    It seems like you are using Windows. I think SumatraPDF is still good on Windows.

      SumatraPDF only works on Windows out of the box (maybe it works well in Wine?). It’s one of those programs you’d expect to be on Linux but it just isn’t. It’s written entirely for the Win32 GUI API and there’s no way you’re going to be able to port it without either embedding Wine’s GUI wrappers or rewriting every single line of GUI code.

      I like the Linux alternatives plenty, but SumatraPDF is one of those programs that are hard to replace if you want all features you’re used to.
