How to disable pop-ups at the top of okular

"This document has embedded files. Click here to see them or go to File -> Embedded files".

Is it possible? I haven't found a setting for this.

  • This may eliminate too many info and error messages but the required message is blocked by unchecking: Settings -> Configure Okular -> General -> Show hints and messages. If this answers your question I will draft a formal answer... – andrew.46 Aug 24 '17 at 07:23
  • @andrew.46 Yes, it works – ka3ak Aug 24 '17 at 08:49

There does not seem to be a specific setting for this particular 'info' message but if you turn off all such messages you will achieve the desired effect.

Uncheck the following setting:

Settings -> Configure Okular -> General -> Show hints and messages

And all should be well! Below is a screenshot demonstrating the required setting on my own system:

  • You'll have to press F5 ( or do File -> Reload ) to get rid of the message on an already opened document. – Anthon Jan 23 '19 at 10:36

    This doesn't seem to work for the message "This document has forms. Click on the button to interact with them, or use View -> Show Forms."... :-( – AstroFloyd Feb 26 '21 at 13:19

    There is now a dedicated option called "Notify about embedded files, forms, or signatures" in the same menu. – Koopa Sep 02 '23 at 21:28
